Описание: Ann Rule brings her brilliantly informed understanding of the sociopath to this riveting true crime collection.

How this brave victim survived, never knowing her tormentor's whereabouts, and how he resurfaced, forcing a tragic end for all involved, makes this one of Ann Rule's most compelling narratives. Other cases include that of the woman who masterminded her husband's murder to gain his inheritance...
