Murder by Family: The Incredible True Story of a Son's Treachery and a Father's Forgiveness by Kent Whitaker

This true crime novel has the potential to be interesting but rather than grab your attention your left irritated and annoyed.

There is a lot of information missing and you never get an understanding of why, Bart had his family murdered . Whitaker uses his faith and Christianity as an excuse for why things happen and how it lead to putting his son onto a path of redemption.

If you were to subtract all the christian preaching and get the story this nonfiction book would be worth the read but for now this true story leaves much to be desired.

Grade: C-
