Mardi Link
In this addictive true-life whodunit, author Mardi Link details all the evidence to date in the case of the Robison family murders. She crafts her book around police and court documents and historical and present-day statements and interviews, in addition to exploring the impact of the case on the community of Good Hart and the stigma that surrounds the popular summer getaway. Adding to both the sense of tragic history and the suspense, Link laces her tale with fascinating bits of local and Indian lore, while dozens of colorful characters enter and leave the story, spicing the narrative.
During the years of investigation of the murders, officials considered hundreds of tips and leads as well as dozens of sources, among them former secretaries who worked for murder victim Dick Robison; Robison's business associates; John Norman Collins, perpetrator of the "co-ed murders" that took place in Washtenaw County between 1967 and 1969; and an inmate in federal prison in Leavenworth, Kansas, who said he knew who killed the Robison family.
Despite the exhaustive investigative efforts of numerous individuals, decades later the case lies tantalizingly out of reach. It is still an unsolved cold case, yielding, in Link's words, 40 years' worth of "dead-end leads, anonymous tips, a few hard facts, and countless cockamamie theories."

Reseñas de la Crítica
"The murder mystery that has confounded and fascinated people for over 40 years has been given a whole new life. When Evil Came to Good Hart is in its tenth printing and is a well-researched and well-written piece of nonfiction that holds the reader in its spell, just as it has the many writers, reporters, and law officers who have puzzled over it. My highest praise for Mardi Link's book is to say that it reads like a good novel, a real page-turner."
(Judith Guest, author of Ordinary People and The Tarnished Eye)

Who would kill an entire family down to the smallest child? This is one mystery that is yet to be solved. There is good evidence to support the author’s theory of who she thinks is responsible but the police were never able to uncover enough evidence to bring a suspect to trial. The case remains unsolved to this day.
I feel like the book focused on the father too much. Yes, he is the most likely reason the family was murdered. He, by most accounts, was not a very likeable person although he had some redeeming qualities. He appeared to be a successful businessman but he seemed to rub most people the wrong and was overly exacting by nature. He was also a good provider for his family but had a somewhat bizarre fetish. His wife is only mentioned at the end and we don’t get to know the children at all so we are left with a very unclear picture of what life was like for this family.
The investigation was long and very detailed. Every lead was followed to the end. The police really wanted to find out who perpetrated this crime and yet, with no murder weapon, the main suspect out of the picture and so much time passed, it is unlikely we’ll ever know what happened and why. I just wish more time had been invested in detailing the lives of the children and Mrs. Robison. In the end, I’m left disappointed by those left behind.
The narration was really very good. I enjoyed JoBe’s voice and he brought a feel to the book that would have otherwise been missing if I had read rather than listened to this book.
I received this audiobook for free through Audiobook Boom! in exchange for an honest review.

There is ALMOST nothing interesting about this book. The start was good, but it never comes from the start into a interesting story. The narrator is more then good, JoBe Cerny really really tries, but even JoBe cant save this book!
Meh over more meh!
