Marsha Woerner reviewed We Keep the Dead Close by Becky Cooper
Review of 'We Keep the Dead Close' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
Truly intriguing situation and death/murder, but at the same time not totally satisfying! Story is delivered in a single person explanatory voice, and several possibilities are are run through and examined in-depth. Unfortunately, trust for the school and the police departments involved in slowly eroded. Most of the examination is done well after I was in college, and although I was at University of Chicago, not Harvard, I'm sure that the sexism was rampant there, as well. The whole story is unsettling, and it makes one wonder about one universities and murder investigations overall, and the sad thing is, it's not likely to improved any :-(
