Reviews"As the Idaho murders go to trial, the mystery of what happened and why has only deepened. Through tireless, on-the-ground research, Howard Blum lays out everything we know about this Western gothic (and scarily don't). At the center is a human grenade in action whose conviction is far from being a slam-dunk." -- Eric Dezenhall, author of Best of Enemies: The Last Great Spy Story of the Cold War
