This is the true account of a man who married an innocent woman--who ends up dead not long afterwards--and the story of her failing marriage and the attempt to bring her killer to justice. One wonders how a woman could be so naive, but then love is blind. The book dwells more on Ted's sociopathic personality and the people he uses. It moves very fast-you wont get bored with a long pyschiatric profile and family history like many crime novels. Instead, it follows the frustrated attempts to bring this man to justice.
