Ginette B. (Niteowl7) reviewed on 1/28/2006 + 242 more book reviews

It's been awhile since I read this book so I can't really describe its contents. I do know I liked the book a lot; I consider Ann Rule to be one of the top writers in the true crime genre. (The other is Jack Olsen). This story revolves around an eccentric group of 4 friends who refused to grow up. At the center is Scott, a ladies' man, drug dealer, and eventually, a bank robber and murderer. He lived in a luxurious tree house and thought that everything was one big lark - like he was still a little boy, playing different roles. Eventually, his daydream life, caught by the FBI and Seattle police, ended in a shower of bullets. There are 3 bonus crime files included: "The Peeping Tom", "The Girl who Fell in Love with Her Killer", and "An Unlikely Suspect". The titles alone are intriguing while at the same time giving you an idea of their content. And Anne Rule doesn't disappoint here.
