The author already suggests a gripping and realistic tone for the book, suggesting the idea that murder is a string that wraps around the world connecting us all as we 'invite it into our homes'.
She shows the trials and tribulations of murder and sets a strong sense of vivid reality within the first few pages, talking of how we, as a society, have grown accustomed to these crimes.
She toys with the frivolous attributes of humanities perspective of crime, manslaughter and murder, and we can already see opinions being formed within the book, arising a confrontational feel, why are we this accepting of murder and when did this happen?
The author comments on Coke's ideology of 'manslaughter' and how it depicts the corrupted and misguided labels we attach to these people, whether truly evil or not we label them as wicked, monsters, cruel.
Within the first 18 pages the author has successfully created an abundance of questions in my mind, those of which I am certain I will find answers to as I read on, and has already excellently infiltrated obtuse and definitive things I was yet to question.
I can't wait to continue reading.
