This is an excellent version of what was in the newspapers, and it was well written as it invoked the sentimental feelings that come into play when we read or witness something as horrendous as this. It is so sad, that the little girl’s body is still not found, and hope the father will see through his failings and atleast identify where her body is.
Excellent read, i will recommend this book to anyone
