Loading... Murder of Innocence (ID True Crime, 5)by James Patterson
   None No current Talk conversations about this book.   ) MamaRollins | Oct 5, 2023 |  ) loraineo | Oct 22, 2022 | The book contains 2 separate true-crime thrillers. I found myself getting into the first one, Murder of Innocence. I wanted to kick the protagonist right in the balls. If this story was a stand-alone I would up my rating to 4 stars. The second story, A Murderous Affair, was a bit on the boring side, almost predictable, hence the 3 rating. On a positive note, I did find that learning the characters and visualizing their development was a bright spot in that story. I liked the book; I just wasn't over the moon about it. (  ) Christilee394 | Mar 11, 2022 | **Review contains spoilers** Murder of Innocence tells the tale of Andrew Luster, the great grandson of Max Factor. Andrew preys on young teenage or barely adult girls, drugging them and raping them while they are unconscious. He gets away with it for awhile until finally someone turns him in. Proving his guilt is another matter. This story also introduces Dog, the bounty hunter. But, Andrew has taken the innocence of these girls from them. A Murderous Affair tells the story of a young, married FBI agent, Mark Putnam, and his informant, Susan, an attractive young woman whose life has been difficult. Their flirtation turns serious, and becomes an affair. When Susan makes demands of Mark, it becomes too much for him to handle. Mark’s wife, Kathy, suffers for Mark’s indiscretions as well.
