Book Reviews of the Vanished at Sea: The True Story of a Child TV Actor and Double Murder (St. Martin's True Crime Library)
Customer Review: Average account of a horrific crime.
Summary: 3 Stars
Tina Dirmann's account of the horrific deaths of Tom and Jackie Hawks at sea while they are showing their yacht off to psychopath Skylay Deleon and his cohorts reads like one of those "rush to print" true crimes books that seeks to beat the oppositon to the punch. Problem with such efforts is that as here, the principal villain, Skylar Deleon, has not yet even had his trial. The author must be assuming a guilty verdict yet OJ's trial should teach us it's never over till it's over. Also, failure to carefully edit the facts results in errors such as the author's assertion that the victim Tom Hanks had served in combat in the Phillipines. Clearly she was referring to the Vietnam conflict and got her history confused. All in all, barely a three out of five.
