Editor's Review ★★★☆★

AudioBook Atlas

Kevin Kollins' narration is nothing short of mesmerizing. His voice conveys the weight of guilt and regret that Rifkin himself admits with unsettling clarity. However, while most true crime stories focus on the victims, this audiobook's strength lies in its raw, intimate portrayal of the perpetrator. The pacing is deliberate, allowing each admission to sink in deeply. Despite its 3 hours and 34 minutes, it feels like a much longer journey through the depths of human depravity. A specific critique: the over-reliance on Rifkin’s own words can sometimes feel repetitive, but this also serves as a chilling reminder of his relentless self-deprecation.
