Helter Skelter: The True Story of the Manson Murders

A história é uma sequência de erros, dos policiais, dos peritos, demoraram muito para solucionar o caso. Fora isso chega ser engraçado a forma que as meninas caiam no papinho dele, como ele tinha uma lábia enorme.

After my interest being initially sparked by the documentary which is on Netflix (and would highly recommend) I found myself wanting to know more about this case and thought what better way to learn about it then by the main prosecutor himself, who coincidentally died last year but has left a brilliant and in depth book for readers to enjoy. 

First of all I think it's worth noting that this book is purely on the crime case and not the background of the individuals involved. Yes it does touch on life before the family existed but very briefly. The bulk of this book is the investigation, the trial and all the countless people that were involved. 

And because of that, this book is heavy (literally too). Towards the end I did find myself having to plod on through, but the main reason for that was because of the vast amount of detail, there really is no stone that is not turned in this book, which means it's the most detailed and full account of the Manson murders probably to have ever existed. 

I really would recommend this book even if you're not that interested in crime generally but are interested in the Manson murders specifically.
