Includes Ann Rule's insider commentary on the Mary Winkler murder case REAL-LIFE MURDER. REAL-LIFE MYSTERY. In some murder cases, the truth behind the most tragic of crimes crystallizes with relative ease. Not so with these fascinating accounts drawn from the personal files of Ann Rule, America's #1 bestselling true-crime writer. What happens when the case itself becomes an intractable puzzle, when clues are shrouded in smoke and mirrors, and when criminals skillfully evade law enforcement in a maddening cat-and-mouse chase? Even the most devoted true-crime reader won't predict the outcome of these truly baffling cases until the conclusions revealed in Ann Rule's marvelously insightful narrative: An ideal family is targeted for death by the least likely enemy, who plotted their demise from behind bars.... A sexual predator hides behind multiple fake identities, eluding police for years while his past victims live in fear that he will hunt them down.... A modest preacher's wife confesses to shooting her husband after an argument -- but there's more to her shattering story than meets the eye. These and other true cases are analyzed with stunning clarity in a page-turning collection you won't be able to put down. |

Summary: Smoke, mirrors and murder by Ann Rule Great book. Another Ann Rule classic. No one can tell a story quite like Ann Rule. Summary: Ann Rules! Her best one yet! Ann truly RULES! A must read for any real true crime buff. I finished it in one night! LOVE, Love, love!!!! Keep on keepin on, Ann! You reign supreme! Summary: NOT ONE OF HER BEST THIS BOOK WAS JUST OK. IT SEEMED LIKE SHE JUST WANTED TO GET A BOOK WRITTEN--FAST. I LIKE WHEN SHE WRITES A BOOK ON ONE CRIME ONLY, NOT 3 OR 4 CRIMES. I WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED. Summary: Loved this book Loved this book! The stories are compelling and Ann makes you feel like you are right there. The story of the Truckers wife is haunting. Summary: Sorry, but this book just wasn't good I am a long-time admirer of Ann Rule's true crime genre. Usually, when I know she has a book coming out, I make sure I don't get into any other reading, book-wise, so I can totally enjoy her latest offering. What has always made her books so interesting, and impossible to put down, are her incredible descriptions of all the players. This is definitely missing this time around. The first story just seemed to go on and on and on, with a lot of it feeling repetitive. I had hoped to get more out of the following stories, but, alas, it was not to be. I didn't find even one of them that really drew me in, and actually was glad when I finished, so that I could go on to another book I've been saving. She has always been the number one true crime writer, but I sure hope the next book is more on par with the quality of her former books. Sincerely, Karol Santiago |
