Publisher Description

They were a notorious gypsy family that seeped into their victims' lives like a deadly cancer. And they couldn't be stopped—until one courageous woman took on the cases no one else would touch...

THE VICTIMS:

Elderly, well-to-do men and women who, due to their failing health, strength, and faculties, could be conned out of their fortunes by heinous neglect, abuse, and possibly even murder.

THE ACCUSED:

Several members of a ruthless family of Gypsies known for their cunning con-games and remarkable ability to extract large sums of money from their unwitting pawns.

THE INVESTIGATOR:

Fay Faron, a beautiful, never-say-die P.I., determined to bring these culprits to justice—even when the authorities turned a blind eye to the Gypsies' crimes time and time again.

In this shattering expose, bestselling author Jack Olsen follows Fay Faron as she retraces every step of the Gypsy family and the crimes they stand accused of: moving in on their helpless prey, extorting money, signing the fortunes of elderly millionaires into their own names—and speeding up the death process with sadistic neglect, slow poison, and unspeakable cruelty. Not since Peter Maas' King of the Gypsies has the world of Gypsy crime been exposed in such shocking detail and with more fascinating insight.

"I haven't read a lot of true crime books, but Jack Olsen is supposed to be among the best. This true story, about a group of Roma people in California killing off relatives and scamming the rest, with a plucky female private eye, is pretty darn good."
