Her comprehensive research and keen eye for insightful details result in vivid, gripping portraits of the alienated terrorist and those who knew him ... Carter lulls us into thinking that the disturbed mind of a homegrown terorist is explainable, perhaps even forgivable--before lowering the emotional boom as the focus shifts from the eccentricities of the bomber to the horror inflicted on his victims ... Carters cautionary drama uncovers deeper truths that endure long past the limited shelf life of a media event.
