Story
On September 28, 2000, former Indiana state trooper David Camm made a frantic call to his former colleagues in the state troopers office: He had just walked into his garage and found lying on the floor the bodies of his 35-year-old wife Kim and their two children Brad and Jill, ages seven and five. Three days later, things got worse when police arrested David Camm for the triple murder. Soon new stories started emerging about mistresses and violent bursts of temper.

Story
When the bodies of three teenagers were found on the shores of Lake Waco, Texas, in July 1982, even seasoned lawmen were taken aback by the savage mutilation and degradation to which they had been subjected. Yet only 52 days after the gruesome triple-murder was discovered, frustrated authorities suspended the case indefinitely. Patrol Sergeant Truman Simons, who had been called to the scene that night, saw the carnage firsthand - and vowed to find the ferocious killer or killers. He soon became a man with a mission, risking his career and his family's safety in search of evidence.

It was a bleak November in 2012 when Cari Lea Farver vanished from Omaha, Nebraska. Cari, 37, was a devoted mother, reliable employee, and loyal friend - not the type to shirk responsibilities, abandon her son, and run off on an adventure while her dying father took his last breaths. Yet, the many texts from her phone indicated she had done just that. While Cari's boyfriend, Dave Kroupa, and her supervisor were bewildered by her abrupt disappearance, they accepted the texts at face value. Her mother, Nancy Raney, however, was alarmed and reported Cari missing.

Inside a beautiful house in Philadelphia's ritzy Main Line section lay the body of a young mother - dead of an apparent drowning in her bathtub. With no sign of a break-in, no history of marital problems, and the naïve belief that these things sometimes just happen, Stefanie Rabinowitz's family prepared to bury the 29-year-old wife and mother. But at the 11th hour, because Stefanie was so young, and because there were no witnesses to her death, an autopsy was ordered. And what it revealed was unthinkable: Stefanie had been murdered.

Interesting story lessened by virtual voice
I was given this through my membership and enjoyed the story. The author gives a good account and I especially liked the epilogue where you find out what happened to the players after the trial. The author’s notes on police procedures is also interesting. The virtual voice with the mispronounced words, the NH for New Hampshire and the lack of emotion detract from the book. But hey - it was free and and an easy way to spend a few hours.

Probably a better read than listen
Very intriguing story, but as my title says, I think I would’ve enjoyed it as an actual book, verse an AI voice reading it to me. I love true crime, and can’t believe how often his behaviors/ charges were dismissed.

Interesting As Free Book worth a recreational listen
First virtual voice book I’ve listened to. You can tell for example reading “Nine Eleven” as “Nine One One”. Even so it was listenable though it lacked the extra emotion, emphasis etc. a good live reader would have provided. While interesting, the investigation lacked anything unusual, difficult or surprising. It was simply a logical investigation which one hopes the police would always do. There was nothing at the trial that raised any question of guilt and thus there was a quick guilty verdict.

Sorry Husband
What a story about a sorry husband. He obviously had no conscience. No telling what all she put up with in their marriage. Well written. The AI voice is a little distracting, although much better than a female version on a different book. I had to stop that book after about 7-8 minutes.

I disliked the author reference to Oj Simpson's jury makeup. He didn't detail Mr. Anderson's jury. For that reason I will likely not race to get a book by this author again.

AI voice doesn't replace real human, disservice to book
While AI voice undoubtedly more cost effective, the pronunciation of "yeah" as "ya-A" instead of "yah" and inappropriate or lack thereof conversational voice inflection *almost* precluded finishing the book.
