Gain The Last Time We Saw Her Presented By Robert Scott Rendered As Print
Book. Although the court case at the end dragged on a little for me, I recommend though. Very well researched by the author, however it seemed like the author felt the need to include every fact he learned about these cases, no matter insignificant.
It was hard to keep track of who was who, and follow the sequence of events, The "story" sometimes got lost in the details, Deeply Loved, Sadly Missed

"Compelling and shocking, . . a groundbreaking book. " Robert K. Tanenbaum
"Fascinating and fresh, . . a fastpaced, informative read. " Sue Russell I was excited to read this book, I remember when Brooke disappeared I heard about it on Nancy Grace, I have a passion for the missing so it really interested me,
The beginning of the book
was very good, but then it bogs down and parts of it were a real snore, I was hoping to learn more about the kind of person Brooke was, It gives some detail then goes off into legal crap, Also it has a centerfold of pictues but only one of Brooke, Well, two, if you count the missing poster, But the photos are shoddy quality, The rest of the photos are uninteresting and of suspects and the culprit, I'd rather see pictures of the victim, So I say it was okay, not the best, This book Author Just stated that the criminal was taking various meds includingmg of phenergan andmg of synthroid, I want to know how those doses were being made, The lowest you can go on a phenergan is,mg which is half of a,. Even if you half the,, which would be difficult to do it would be very small and no longer scored you still wouldn't getmg unless hes getting it IM, which even then would not be a therapeutic dose just placebo.
Besides that point his lawyer is stating because of his lack of meds he's threatening to kill himself, Umm his meds are Advil, a muscle relaxer, and the two I just stated, He has been prescribed ZERO mental issue meds, He may not feel well but having an upset stomach and needing an NSAID doesn't typically make you incompetent, I keep looking back at that paragraph, . . shaking my head. By the end of the paragraph the lawyer is calling bipolar and screaming give him his meds! This pisses me off! ZERO BIPOLAR MEDS ON PROFILE! ZERO! As other reviewers have said, this book was interesting in parts, but it would have been better as a much shorter book.
The courtroom scenes are, for the most part, repetition of what we were told during the investigation, It is an engaging story about a pretty young woman who goes missing the summer ofin Oregon and the search that ensues for her and her killer.
Very slow A straightforward true crime book with plenty of interesting detail, I read this when it first came out inbut didn't remember too much about it so I read it again for inclusion on Goodreads.
It's quite sad the principal victim is a teenage girl, and it begins to drag once the legal wrangling begins, but overall it's quite interesting.
