Un plan sangriento. El caso Roderick Macrae

Burnet’s framing through various documents gives a layered perspective, but did it make the narrative more engaging or confusing?

His voice is so compelling and human, yet the crimes are horrific. It made me wonder how much empathy is too much in understanding a criminal.

The Scottish Highlands of the 1860s feel so vivid. I’m curious whether Burnet drew from real events or created this setting entirely from imagination.
