Cries Unheard: Why Children Kill: The Story of Mary Bell by Gitta Sereny

3.0

An interesting study of a terrible crime and a look at the complex girl who was responsible - and the woman she has become.

True crime isn't a genre I read much, but I enjoyed getting the complete picture in this book - Mary's life before the murder, the full time line for the crime itself and the entire investigation and trial, and then an in depth look at what has happened to her since, while incarcerated and after she was released.
