I seem to try to figure out what is going on in the minds of others - perhaps I should have been a psychiatrist - but there's no way to understand Dr. Bart Corbin. This book is the true story of Bart Corbin's obsession and murder of two women in his life. He originally got away with the first murder, but he wasn't so lucky the second time around, thank goodness. One has to wonder what switches get crossed in the minds of others for them to justify taking the life of another. Nevertheless, the story is fairly well told, but seriously, I get tired of the murdered woman always being portrayed as being so beautiful and almost perfect. I'm not sure why authors feel they have to do this; perhaps it's their way of ensuring a little more sympathy toward them. Anyway, this is a pretty good book, written in the typical Ann Rule style.

A captivating story about a dangerous man who seems very "normal." This was the abridged audio version so it moved very fast. Ann Rule is one of my mom's favorite authors, and after listening to this one, she's one of mine too. If you like murder mysteries, this is a superior re-telling of a beautiful family's unraveling.

Gripping, and sad, story. Told in a way that made me want to keep listening.
