This was such a great book. Catherine Crier does a great job in telling the story, it's almost as if she was there.

Looking forward to reading more by her.

Fascinating information in this book...a great follow up to "For Laci" by Laci Peterson's mom, Sharon Rocha. Such a sad tragic end to a beautiful young woman and her unborn son.

For those who are interested in the mind set of killers, this book is a good read. Using the facts of the case, the author creates a picture of a man so self absorbed that he cannot think beyond his ability to charm people, even to the extent of believing that he can kill and get away with it. A good read about a real person and incident.

This is my fourth book of reading on the Scott & Laci Peterson murder and trial. It is most informative and interesting. Scott is a total sociopath, but with the other books that I have read, I am still not totally convinced that he actually killed Laci. There are some witnesses that were not brought fourth in the trial (the defense attorney did not seem to really do his job), that would have given me a doubt, at least enough not to agree that Scott should be on death row. I still have a bit to go, but I would have not had all the information that I have read in these books to make a decision. It seems to me that the police latched onto the fact that they thought that Scott was guilty from the beginning and did not investigate all that they could have from that point on. This book totally shows how Scott is a total liar and scumbag, but still I am not sure that he could have committed the murder. A must read if you are interested in this case.

This book was a very interesting view into the mind of a sociopath. Disturbing at times, but a very well-written book.
