The thirteenth entry in the #1 New York Times bestselling series
from the "prolific and talented" (Publishers Weekly) Ann Rule focuses
on crime victims who had no idea they were in life-threatening danger,
often from the very people they trusted the most.
In this collection's featured case, a family man dedicated to
naturopathic healing embarks on a passionate affair with a flight
attendant, but his jealous rages frighten her. When she finally leaves
after a brutal attack, she has no idea that her tormentor would reappear
in her life--with deadly consequences.
Other cases include: a woman who masterminds her husband's murder just
to gain his inheritance; the sadistic criminal whose prison release
damages a presidential campaign and ends in a bitter double tragedy; the
shocking DNA link between a horrifying crime and a cold case; and
finally, the man who crisscrosses the world in deadly pursuit of a
beautiful woman.
Once again, the country's best true crime writer brings her "absolutely
riveting...psychologically perspective" (Booklist) insight to a
chilling look how sometimes those we love the most can be the most
dangerous.
