As good as any fiction adventure tale, this book is double enjoyable because it is a true story. Anyone who has an interest in history and/or South America, or adventure will find this an exciting and delightful diversion.

Quite a creative read. Mieville has this ability to build very different worlds. This book examines the differences between similes and metaphors in an unexpected setting...

I really enjoyed this book. The storytelling was tight, the plot arc polished and it was exciting through to the end. I don't read that much historical fiction but I felt like I was learning about the aqueducts, volcanoes and Rome without lectures and boring lists of facts.

This is the true story of the kidnapping and murder of Adam Walsh and the agony that it brought to his parents John and Reve Walsh. It is testimony to the work of distraught parents to take up the cause of missing children and bring it to the public's notice and over twenty-five years develop a program to help the nation deal with the exploitation of missing children. In this riveting case regarding the loss of their on son we are brought to grips with the tireless efforts of some law enforcement personnel who want to find Adam and get him home. We are also brought face to face with some law enforcement personnel who do not handle the case well, do not document interviews well, do not handle interrogation of suspects well and who do not follow up each and every lead and often stop just short of asking questions that would have served the case well. It is frustrating that within two years of the disappearance of Adam that they have a suspect in custody who on at least seven occasions to different detectives confesses to killing Adam Walsh. But for a series of terrible blunders he is never charged with that murder. There are some detectives who think he is lying. Others who mishandled files and paperwork doesn't get put together properly. Also there turns out to be a small issue. The State Attorney General of Florida was proof beyond a shadow of belief before they will issue an arrest warrant. They want hard evidence, not just verbal testimonies. That person is Janet Reno. She was notorious for not wanting to prosecute any case that wasn't considered a slam dunk. Les Standiford points out that there was such much evidence from eye witnesses, to family members whom Ottis Toole confessed to, to cell mates he confessed to, to dozens of law enforcement offers he confessed to that you have to ask, why did Janet Reno think there was not enough evidence. Ottis Toole knew all the lurid details of the death of Adam Walsh and even where the head was dumped into a canal in the everglades. That head was eventually recovered. The first part of the book reads like a police blotter. You follow all of the investigation from different officers work and see all the evidentiary evidence pilling up, but no one wants to take and make a charge of murder and place him under arrest. Now get this, Ottis Toole is placed under arrest for arson and also murder and those crimes are charged and he is convicted of them. While in prison he confesses to upwards of a hundred other murders. Those cases seem to get charged and solved, but why not the one with Adam Walsh. Having served for 17 years as a Police Chaplain I can tell you that most departments would not put up with the type of sloppy police work that took place. It's not until years later after John Walsh has started the show America's Most Wanted that he finally comes to a breaking point. He an d his wife Reve got to retired Detective Joe Matthews and ask him to re-open the case and see if he can once and for all bring closure. Joe is given free reign from the new Police Chief of Hollywood, FL PD. He takes all the old records and starts making time lines. He finds all the old tips of witnesses and realizes that many of them were never question or were questioned half heartedly. He takes the next two years to dig into the case, interview witnesses again, interview witnesses that were neglected. And more than anything interview Ottis Tooles family. The discovery there is that the whole family believes he killed Adam Walsh. When asked why they haven't said anything, they answer, "no one ever asked." Joe Matthews puts together a 10,000 page case file with pictures that were never before developed. With forensic science that was not previously made available and probably the most damning evidence and this blood stains on the carpet of the car that Toole used. The blood stains showed the impressions of Tooles shoes while he drove out and also the faint facial outline of the decapitated head of Adam Walsh. These items together bring the Hollywood, FL Police Chief to the final conclusion that Otis Toole was the right suspect all along and they now have plenty of evidence to arrest, stand trial and certainly gain a conviction, if he was just still alive. Even so, the tireless work of Joe Matthews brings closure and rest to the Walsh family. It also brings back some much needed believe in the police procedure systems that truely can tract down these types of crimes and bring people to justice. So, twenty seven years about the kidnapping and death of Adam Walsh a family and a nation finally has closure. This book will definitely make you angry as you read. It will make you grieve the victims family and it will make you want to cheer for the good cops and want to fire the bad cops. It also will go a long way to tell us how much police forensic science has grown in the last thirty years. I believe you will enjoy this book. You might get bogged down in the middle portion as the interrogations seem to repeat them selves with no new information coming out for a while. If you get bored in the middle go to the last chapter and read had it is solved. It is well work the time. I recommend this read to anyone interested in how our police departments work and how crimes can go unsolved. Enjoy!

I read this in two days - I just couldn't put it down. Get adventure/romance, but had some things to make you think about. Deals with a Navy SEAL team that creates a training course to help local officials learn to deal with shooter situations in school situations. Really kept my attention
