Summary
Justin St. Germain writes about a trip he took to Holcomb, Kansas, the site of the Clutter murders that In Cold Blood claims to be about. Within the story of the trip, St. Germain talks about his obsession with Capote's classic, and its influence on the book he was writing at the time about his mother's murder, which became his memoir, Son of A Gun--From back cover.
