Musings: Oh, Murderland? More like Tacoma’s darkest tell-all—and as someone born there, I can officially say: What the actual hell?! Reading this was like watching my hometown get dragged through a true-crime documentary—except this one doesn’t hold back. It’s unsettling, it’s gripping, and it will have you side-eyeing every quiet street and misty forest like they’ve been keeping secrets all along.
This book doesn’t just examine crime—it dissects it, flips it upside down, and dares you to question why the Pacific Northwest seems to breed the kind of terror that keeps FBI profilers busy. The connections to environmental decay? Bone-chilling. The investigative depth? Ruthless. The revelations? Prepare to be wrecked.
Bottom line: Murderland doesn’t just tell a story—it exposes one. If you want a true-crime read that will grab you by the throat and not let go, this is it. Just don’t expect to look at Tacoma—or really, any forested backroad—the same way ever again.
My Rating: If you didn’t rate this 5 stars…did we even read the same book?
