The book is very readable and well organized as it leads you step by step. It starts with a history of Mary's family, then her disappearance, the search, evidence gathered, Bert Hall's background and the subsequent trial. The author, Judge Patrick Robertshaw was not the trial judge, but his research is convincing in that there was a chilling of miscarriage of justice in this case. ( )
