In deed it is a thrilling encounter. I would like to know more what led to the execution of Simpson. Another interesting duo is that of Montero and Sanchez. Such a nice piece.

This sounds like a very interesting plot. I have read a sample and enjoyed it. Now I need to know what went wrong and why Simpson's friends skipped out on him. Thanks for the great review.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting crime/thriller following a priest and a crime scene investigator who team up to investigate the crime for which a young man, whom the priest believes is innocent, was executed for. It might be worth a second look. Well Done.

This is my kind of book. A good read on a lazy rainy day. Base on your review the book will take me with them while they are investigating. A quest for the truth among the lies of the world. Good review. Thanks

The Imperfect crime
This book shows us the struggles we go through in each community to succeed or be noticed
Politics get in the way of our success and when we think we have people we could trust to assist us we get to discover all along we are alone no one can assist you without benefitting from you.

We must learn to plan and execute on our own even though it's hard and it takes time but it saves one the worry of being betrayed by the one's they trust the most.

It was a good read. Thank you 😊

This sounds like a great #BOTD for me. The complexity of the characters and the twists of discovery sound are perfect for a crime/mystery story.

BOOK TITLE: An imperfect crime
AUTHOR: Fred G. Baker
(A review compiled by Ekta Kumari)

Good introduction. From the look of things, the three(3) friends devised a fake crime after graduation in order to make it big. Amongst the three(3) friends, Peter Simpson became a scapegoat. It is a crime to fake a crime. The faker may not get away easily.

Simpson peter was executed.

Whether the priest of Peter Simpson father Guillermo Montero carries out an investigation over the death of an innocent blood; the did has been done and Peter Simpson is dead over a fake crime. This is a food for thought: never embark on a fake crime.

The reviewer has written well, and I strongly recommend this book to all academic institute of learning as an eye opener not to indulge or practice crime.

I rate this book 4 out of 4 stars because this will serve as a deterrent to those who seesks to indulge in a crime.

I think I need a copy of this novel for my family and friends.

The idea of fake crime for achieving the wicked designs in their writing carrier is quite intriguing.

The review has piqued my interest for this crime thriller novel. I love how the narrative flows seamlessly around a complex plot and an intricate timeline, a feat that is hard to pull off. Thanks for the review.

The book sounds like an interesting crime thriller novel. I like it that it involves a set of interwoven crimes as its main theme with undertones of jealousy and betrayal. However, I'm not a fan of crime thrillers. I'll pass on this one.
