Iana Matei, rumana, empieza a colaborar como psicóloga para una ONG que se ocupa de menores en situaciones de precariedad.

In this true story, James Keene was given the chance to cut his jail sentence for drug dealing short by going undercover in prison, in an attempt to get a serial killer to confess the location of the bodies he buried.

The book cuts between Keene's life before prison, the crimes of Larry Hall, and the interplay between them in prison. Keene and Levin are good at keeping the tension ratcheted up, and making readers care about the outcome.

Read because of connection with Kankakee (had business there for 17 years), although no one that I was familiar with and mostly that the fallen football hero was from there.
A real life episode resembling a TV show. In prison and offered chance for reduced sentence if infiltrates and gets confession from suspected serial killer. Few twists at end make for interesting reading.
Read in 2011
