First time author. She did a great job! Long on biographical information, the investigation is not overly repetitive and the courtroom proceedings are condensed. Just the way I like it. Story about a former stripper who murders her husband. I was not totally convinced that she did it alone.

There was a 48 hours episode about the case in Nov. 2009. It is called "Diary of a show girl".

I am just reading the book and have not gotten to the trial yet but I have to agree, I believe Larry was somehow involved. They never figured out what he was throwing away in those big bags. :-S

Btw Hogan's next book will be about the Arias trial. I preordered it but obviously it will be delayed.
