Editorial Reviews:
In Who Killed My Daughter?, acclaimed young adult author Lois Duncan recounts the harrowing story of her own daughters tragically unsolved murder, and her personal quest to find and bring a killer to justice.
Teri Clark Linden performs this raw and affecting memoir, her calm, even voice bringing some balance to the emotional turmoil evident throughout this intense audiobook. Who Killed My Daughter? is a poignant and elegiac recollection of personal grief and grit in the face of immeasurable horror, and Duncans journey through shock to rage and eventually uneasy acceptance is gripping, and not to be missed.
Members Reviews:
Not a True Crime Novel in the traditional sense
What could have made this a 4 or 5-star listening experience for you?
The Narrator has a very odd speaking pattern that became increasingly intolerable for me. She reads almost every sentence as an interrogative sentence. Her voice goes up at the end of each sentence as if she is asking a question even when she is reading a fact. So, possibly, I may have enjoyed this book slightly more if it had been read by another narrator.
Has Who Killed My Daughter? turned you off from other books in this genre?
No.
If you could play editor, what scene or scenes would you have cut from Who Killed My Daughter??
All scenes having to do with psychic readings should have been ommitted. As the genre implies, a true crime novel should be made up of known facts. The endless droning on about the numerous psychic readings the author attended was nonsensical and did not add to the story in any way at all. There is not one "fact" that was offered during any psychic reading that aided the author in finding the answer to her question "Who Killed My Daughter". The readings of these transcripts from the psychic were boring and pointless to this listener and detracted from the story.
reader is incredibly monotone & boring
narrator monotone making it incredibly hard to finish. story hard to follow. don't waste time
True Story
I enjoy reading nonfiction. However, this story (even though there is a sequel) suffers from the number one issue with true stories, it is unresolved. So it is fascinating to read about the family, the case, and all the possible solutions. But you have to be okay without those answers.
Intriguing and Heartbreaking
I have always been a fan of Lois Duncan and I hope that her daughter's murderer(s) are found and convicted.
