I finished the book, and I am downright BELLIGERENT about how it ended. I understand that this is real life and everything, but I feel as if the book could have just stopped after the capture of Holmes instead of continuing on about how everyone fell into misery and bankruptcy.
Of course, I'm glad that Holmes was caught. And it was intriguing to see how the investigation of what he did played out with Geyes. But. Still. He was killed, and then terrible things happened to the people investigating him, and Pietzel got killed, and his KIDS got killed.
And then the book goes on to tell you that EVERYONE YOU LOVED DIES SAD AND SICK. That is five different kinds of Not Cool.
Why did fiction give me false hopes that the ending of this book would be happy. Because now I'm very sad.
