I've read so many jokes about this...so many...

There is SO much of this!

This meandering story that happens to be true at times seems like a veritable saga of stories within stories but that's not the mistake of the makers.

Twisting and turning, this is all very thoroughly researched and I walked away with a sense that now I had been schooled about the case.

This is less a story about getting a kid back than it is about bureaucratical confusion, the need to scapegoat, how everyone's flaws come out during stressful times. There are at least a dozen people here who could write an interesting book about the thing from their point of view alone.

That indeed is somewhat the point as you will see.

The people here are often odious and judgemental and if nothing else this is a lesson in reserving judgement and prioritizing a search, at least during the first year.

The McCanns were never charismatic people but they are not hateable here.
