Ted And Ann - The Mystery Of A Missing Child And Her Neighbor Ted Bundy (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
In 1961, a little girl named Ann Marie Burr disappeared from her own home, never to be seen again. There were few clues and even fewer leads or suspects...until Ted Bundy, who lived only a few miles away from the Burrs, entered national prominence with a horrific spree of killings. Ann's parents wondered: did Ted Bundy kill their daughter?Although an interesting question, it's difficult to determine whether he did. Ted denied killing Ann on several occasions, but he was a sociopath who lied frequently, so it's not as if we can take his word. He might have done it. He might not have. No one will ever really know for sure, unless Ann's body is found and, miracle of miracles, there's some sort of DNA evidence left intact after all of these years that can link Ted to her. The book itself alternates between the Burrs' (unfortunately fruitless) search for Ann and Ted Bundy's life and crimes, which gives the book a disjointed feel. It's not particularly well-written, and the author repeats herself frequently in various chapters. Furthermore, the author never takes the additional step to try to prove that Ted Bundy did indeed abduct and, presumably, murder Ann. Instead, the book ends with a weak "I believe Ted did this" paragraph or two. An ok book and interesting speculation. I borrowed it from Amazon and so feel I got my money's worth but am glad I didn't purchase it, as it was not a stellar read. There are tons for formatting errors but my review is not affected by that, as I feel it does a disservice to readers and authors to rate a book on anything other than substance. For me, the book lacked depth and that's why it gets only 3 stars.
