WOW, another great one.
My favorite stories are crime stories. I watch CSI and all those Court shows on television. None can tell the story better then a good book and this is one of those books. Corey Mitchell is one of my favorite author's and I have read all of his work to date. This one tops my list. I can't wait for his newest book to come out. Another one I would recommend.
Outstanding Research, Outstanding Writing, Outstanding True Crime
Corey Mitchell's
DEAD
AND
BURIED
, about the life and times of rapist and
murder
er Rex Krebs, has been reviewed and praised so extensively that I would not normally write this review. But I want to emphasize the massive amount of research Mitchell has done on this book.
I am a veteran reader of true crime and feel that the two areas that make or break a true crime book are the research into the backgrounds of the main players and the quality of the writing.
First let me assure you that Mitchell can write. The writing is straightforward, intelligent, literate, and professional, and Mitchell does not feel the need to inject his own personality into the narrative.
And Mitchell has researched the life of Rex Krebs as thoroughly as any true crime writer I've ever read. The first 230 pages, an unheard of number, is devoted to Krebs' life before he committed the crimes discussed in DEAD AND BURIED. The result is that the reader understands what caused Rex Krebs to be the person he became, presented in linear fashion, starting from the time of his birth.
Readers who enjoy intelligent, skilled, and meticulous true crime will appreciate the hard work that went into DEAD AND BURIED and will love the result.

Dead and Buried
Wow! Another great book by Corey Mitchell. This one is probably my favorite and I've read all of his books. This held my attention from cover to cover!
Very eye opening
Yet another hit from Corey Mitchell! The way he starts out with some of the attacks and then starts from the beginning of where everyone involved came from etc. was awesome. I again love the way he ties in other cases where applicable that people might recall. I was especially touched by the story of his deceased wife at the beginning. I had read books done after this and seen the reference to her but had no clue til I read the story. She is definately looking down on you Mr. Mitchell and smiling as you get these stories out to help others. I'd love to help make it so rapists can't get out after the first offense to do what Rex Krebbs did. Wonderful job!
