Book Reviews of Into the Water

Book Review: Bringing a tragic story to life
Summary: 5 Stars

I was not familiar with the murders of Sofia Silva and Kati and Kristi Lisk. Thus, Into the Water was a great read for me. I'm a newbie to the true crime genre. I liked this book because it kept me on my toes. I knew that the girls would lose their lives, but I didn't know what would happen to their killer. Fanning does a great job of recreating the events of the the killer's life and the seasons of the girls' deaths.

Not only does Fanning discuss the horrible murders of the teenagers, but also the murders of other young women. Could he have been responsible for these other cold cases? Could a 1975 murderer have any ties to the killer's family?

Fanning also captures the mood of Spotsylvania county, a place where people fled so they could avoid crime. Sadly, crime came to this peaceful haven, and the area wasn't the same. Fanning makes a point to show just how justifiably paranoid Spotsylvania became after the girls' disappearances.

I liked Into the Water and will be buying more Fanning true crime books.

Summary of Into the Water

To authorities she spilled the shocking details of a night of horror. It was the lead they'd been desperate for in a multi-state manhunt for an elusive serial killer. Where the witness took them was to the last man anyone would have suspected.

Richard Marc Evonitz was beloved by friends and family. He was handsome, intelligent, and compassionate. Serving a spotless eight years in the U.S. Navy, he was a town hero who lived in harmony in an exclusive South Carolina neighborhood. The only ones who saw Evonitz's dark side were his victims. They were helpless teenage girls who, one by one, were subjected to his twisted sexual fantasies of kidnap, rape, and murder-until his double life came undone by the brave cunning of his last young victim. But as authorities and the media descended upon him, Evonitz had one more shocking surprise in store for everyone-a stunning final act of violence and reckoning that would turn a bright sunlit morning blood red.
