Raynella Dossett Leath is suspected of killing her husband David Leath in 2003 whom at first they taught committed suicide. She is also a suspect in the death of her first husband, Ed Dossett, in 1992. He supposedly died when trampled by a cattle stampede, but prosecutors now believe was killed with a lethal dose of morphine.
Half way through the book it becomes about Dr Pedigo, medical examiner that did the autopsy on Ed Dossett. I found most of it unnecessary. A few highlights on why he is not a credible person would have been enough to get the point across. Just write another book on Dr Pedigo. It does go back to the former nurse's story and all of the details are dragged trough the court system which has its own issues. Immediately following her conviction on the murder of David Leath,the charges relating to her first husband's death were dropped. Really? Just wow.
