About this deal

the small indiana town is a great setting, the people in its community are pretty interesting characters, and the combination of both create an engaging atmosphere. Maybe I’m the only one who noticed those things, but it took away from a book I expected to have much bigger twist and turns. In the twenty years since, Margot has grown up, moved away, and become a big-city journalist, but she’s always been haunted by the fear that it could’ve been her.

He can’t tell Margot that he was actually January and Jace’s father OR that he told Billy this on the day January died. A simple acknowledgement and apology would have been all that's needed for retribution, but none came. By a weird coincidence, I was listening to a podcast on the Casey Anthony case right before I read this, and something stuck with me.

I mean, I guess Krissy had taken a sleeping pill, but the sound of the etch a sketch woke her up but not the slamming of the door and the sound of her daughter falling down the stairs? stars — I have heard a lot of talk about “All Good People Here” due to it being the first novel written by Ashley Flowers, the host of the popular podcast, “Crime Junkie. Margot has moved home to Wakarusa to care for her uncle who has been struck down with early onset dementia. With all the old feelings rushing back, Margot vows to find Natalie and solve January’s murder once and for all.

I couldn’t agree with you more, I was counting on Jodi or Luke in a moment of lucidity to come in and save Margot. What fell short for me was the various characters that seem to come and go and the reader had no idea to where or why. I am never a fan of a plot with an elaborate cover-up for an accident, something that happens in many books. Just as she seemingly was finally going to start taking care of her Uncle (like she should have been the whole time) she might be killed? There is one that has plagued her, it being the death of her best friend January Jacobs, who seemed to have been abducted and murdered at such a young age.

While she's there, the town people started to remember who she is and she started to learn of the recent disappearance of a little girl. I don’t mind an ending that leaves a bit to the imagination or one that is slightly ambiguous, but this just ends at a pivotal moment.

At the core of the company and all its podcasts, Ashley and her team are committed to developing responsible true crime content. A journalist comes home to care for her beloved uncle who is suffering from early onset dementia and encounters memories of her childhood. If you are familiar with the most debated true crime cases, a staged crime scene by a parent to cover up the death a child isn’t that out-there.There is also a theory about a heated sibling dispute possibly involving a flashlight and some pineapple. Margo is a crime reporter who failed at her job recently because she was grieving for the loss of her aunt and worrying for her uncle who's experiencing early signs of dementia. The fact that the author is a podcaster doesn’t help this book, there are plot holes all over the place. Dave/Luke had another opportunity to be like “hey, wtf” when Krissy died in 2009 on the very day Dave/Luke and Krissy spoke about the twins’ parentage. Very disappointing actions by one of the biggest true crime podcasts, not to mention the complete lack of personal ethics and morals.
