It's not about just one murder
The killer manipulated, raped literally hundreds of women before killing his first victim, and that kind of darkness is present in the retelling of the events in this book.

Con
Documentary style
Excepting the psychological parts or the gore parts, the detailed concise storytelling that the author uses for most of the book might be too bland for some people.

Deeply Psychological

Con
The murders are not told in chronological order
The story skips around quite a bit and does not go through them in a way that true crime fans might want to.

Pro
It is a close up personal look into a serial killer
The author had a platonic relationship with the serial killer for years, up until his execution, so she knows a lot of details that are not available anywhere else.

Con
It doesn't get much into the mind of Ted Bundy
The book is filled with details of Ann Rule's relationship with Ted, and her feelings for him, however, she doesn't really dive into what was going on inside the mind of the killer. That lack of psychological perspective is felt throughout the novel.

Plenty of real evidence of the trial case available in this book
Since the writer was also the lead prosecutor of the case, and also one of its investigators, there is enough evidence on this book to make the reader an expert on Charles Manson.

Con
A little dense for non detail-oriented people
The amount of detail in this book is staggering, and some people found the evidence roundups and the pages depicting the trial too repetitive for their taste.
