Such an interesting read! Makes you rethink about the truth, which we may never know but I think it’s important to question things and to not 100% accept one persons narrative which this book brought out alot of peoples version/ their own questions too

This is a lesson in being overly self-aware. Seven of the chapters are amazing and well worth reading. The rest should have stayed on the cutting floor.

I’ve read a lot of true crime. Next to the Bible this is the best book I ever read. Tom presents the reality of how twisted the US government and law enforcement and court system is. This book can make sad and mad and shocked. The only dislike about it is that there is not for even half a second any joy at all. A personal thought: concerning mountains interviews I think Tom Schneider‘s interview was the biggest journalism failure ever because if he would’ve quit interrupting so much, I think Madison would have cleared a few things up or send some interesting things or even confess something. He was trying to say something.

It was very interesting all the way through. It makes me wonder if the time we’re living in now isn’t some government operation to divide us all.

Lots of interesting avenues explored.

Outstanding book! I appreciated the way that the author kept the reader informed on what he was thinking along the way and how he went about researching this topic.

Maybe the most fascinating and engaging thing that I’ve ever read; and I read lot’sa stuff. This careful, responsible and entertaining piece of journalism will forever alter your world view. I’m a Tom O’Neill for life now.

In a story as complicated and chaotic as this one, more than anything else I appreciate the authors commitment to the details regardless of where they lead. Everything in this story is worth being written into a book of its own, and I sincerely hope they do. For taking us along for the ride of the writing of this book, I feel a much deeper connection to the author himself than I expected to at the start which is no small feat considering the various entities and cult of personality involved. I struggled to put this down and I know others will as well.

When you follow leads & your intuition, the truth can happen. This book is amazing and a proof positive piece to challenge those who consume the narrative without question.

This book is so interesting that it is hard to stop reading. It’s amazing that none of what is in this book has not been told before. What you thought about the Manson Family and the murders is very different than the truth explained in this book.
