"We gotta kill 'em. They know what we look like."
On a hot summer night in Houston, two teenage girls—bright, beautiful, success-bound friends—took a shortcut home from a friend's apartment to make their curfew. They never reached their homes. The next morning, the families of the two girls began a frantic search, organizing friends and neighbors and posting thousands of fliers across the sprawling city. But not until an anonymous 911 call four days later were the bodies of Jennifer Ertman and Elizabeth Pena finally recovered. Their killers were soon rounded up—a brutal, unrepentant gang of teenage boys whose convictions should have put them behind bars for life. But in the halls of justice, nothing is ever a sure bet . . .

"Pure Murder is very well written. It flows easily and the description of the perpetrators and the facts of the case is clear and concise. The two young girls in this case were terrorized and unfortunately, the justice system didn't provide real justice for the families because the punishments were nowhere near the terror and agony these girls suffered. It's a shame the perpetrators couldn't be raped, beaten, stomped, stabbed and left for nature to take hold of. Absolutely despicable what these monsters did. Good book, but nasty true life situation for these families."
