I'm currently reading And Every Word is True by Gary McAvoy.

Truman Capote said of his nonfiction novel IN COLD BLOOD, "and every word is true". In his nonfiction book AND EVERY WORD IS TRUE Gary McAvoy raises some questions about that. There may be more to the Clutter murders than a robbery gone horribly wrong. In bringing the police notebooks of Harold Nye, former director of the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, up for auction the author found himself embroiled in a legal battle with the state of Kansas. Why was the state determined to get the papers back? The case was solved fifty years earlier and all of the lead players were deceased. Going through Nye's notebooks and copies of documents he kept regarding the case AND EVERY WORD IS TRUE posits more theories about the Clutter killings. Was the case really solved?
