Judith Flanders research is flawless if a little over done. I enjoyed reading how crime not only brought about what we consider a modern police force, but also period entertainment. I do feel that she could have left out half of the examples of books, plays, puppet show, etc. that were influenced by said murder. I did enjoy the book very much even if I did skip a few pages along the way.
