The patrolman searches Campbell's care and finds it littered with weapons, guns, drugs, cash, and meticulously detailed assassin's notebooks with names from many unsolved murders. Cipollini recounts all the gruesome events in grisly detail, you can almost hear the deep-voiced narrator and chilling background music."</span></p> <div> <div><span><i>- Katherine Montalto, Metro Times</i></span></div> </div>
