Description

Format: Mass Market Paperback, 400pp. ISBN: 0671887963 Publisher: Pocket Books Pub. Date: May 2002 Sex, violence, evil, and betrayal-the shocking murder case splashed across the Florida headlines has all the right elements for true-crime writer Marie Lightfoot's next bestseller. And tell the tale she does, in a book that lays bare every detail of a love affair gone fatally wrong. But there are disturbing twists, which leave Marie sensing in her gut that something does not jibe. Twist number one: the accused is a man of the cloth, who has allegedly killed his wife in collusion with his lover. Twist number two: a pair of young girls find the body in an abandoned mansion, adding the death of innocence to the magnitude of the crime. Twist number three: a shattering conviction turns the case on its ear. And the ultimate blow: for the first time in her career, Marie fails to win the killer's confidence during a jailhouse interview. Suddenly, she knows with certainty there is more to the story than even she realized-and her conscience won't let her rest.Then an unexpected visitor-a shock in itself for the reclusive writer-confesses something that not even the policeknow. The revelation may be the missing piece in a terrifying puzle-evidence that teaches Marie a bone-chilling lesson even as threatening danger slowly encircles her: to err is human, but underestimating the criminal mind can be deadly.
