Very detailed, written like a novel, a great read! Also a Lifetime movie, but the book's way better!
I read an updated version with an afterword from 2002 from Ms. Rule. Nice to know what these people are doing now! And praise goes to the investigator and DA who wouldn't let a "simple" murder go without digging further!
What David Brown did to his family is unthinkable. He molested his wife's sister, he manipulated his 14 year old daughter into killing his wife and then sat back and enjoyed his freedom and the insurance money from the death of his wife.
While he lounged in a nearly 1/2 a million dollar home, now married to his late wife's sister, his daughter sat in the Ventura School (a youth prison). If not for three men, who went above and beyond the call of duty, David Brown would never have been convicted. Kudos to Jay Newell, Jeoff Robinson and Fred McLean. And to Cinnamon Brown for breaking the silence.
Ann Rule weaves a story so incredible and so vivid you will not be able to put the book down till you're done!
Bravo, Ann, on another truly exceptional book.
