Book Reviews of Death at Every Stop (St. Martin's True Crime Library)
Book Review: Not THAT Bad
Summary: 4 Stars
All of the other reviews for this book really hammer it as the worst true crime book in the world. But if you do the research, many of the other reviewers do not have much credibility since they have only reviewed one book. While it has some flaws, I would suggest the book is not that bad.
The account of Andrew Cunanan is concise. Even with a 260 page count, the chapters are short and have an average of three pages in between chapters. That being said, the facts are largely accurate. While the author does take some liberties, such suggesting Cunanan asked for a glass of water before shooting Lee Miglin, the fabrications are not sensational.
Some of the things I really liked about the book were Clarkson's research into Cunanan's obsession with Tom Cruise. Additionally, Cunanan met Lisa Kudrow and may have targeted her for the future after her rebuffs. Before this publication, little has been documented about Cunanan meeting Gianni Versace over a year before killing him. Also, the author documents Cunanan's stormy childhood and carosel of relationships.
Certainly the book is concise but serves as a good introduction to interested readers. In other words, I hope they will write better books about Cunanan than this, though "Death at Every Stop" is adequate.
