A Rip In Heaven - Jeanine Cummins

A Rip In Heaven is about a crime that occurred in April of 1991. The author is the cousin and sister to the victims of this event and the book is written to give all the details and to push for understanding for the victims. The author does a good job with this and really pushes the need for victims not to be forgotten after a crime as society does tend to only remember the criminals and the crime not those affected by the crime. It was an interesting book although I found the author giving indepth bios for the criminals but not for the victims even though she wanted the readers to remember the victims more. That would be one area to add to this book, talk about those lost more than those who took them away.
