Newly reissued, the chilling true story of Bradly Morris Cunningham, the handsome and successful entrepreneur adored by five beautiful and brilliant women who gave him everything he ever wanted—including their very lives.
When attorney Cheryl Keeton's brutally bludgeoned body was found in her van in the fast lane of an Oregon freeway, her husband, Brad Cunningham, was the likely suspect. But there was no solid evidence linking him to the crime. He married again, for the fifth time, and his stunning new wife, a physician named Sara, adopted his three sons. They all settled down to family life on a luxurious estate. But gradually, their marriage became a nightmare....
In this gripping account of Cheryl's murder, Ann Rule takes us from Brad's troubled boyhood to one of the most bizarre trials in legal history, uncovering multiple marriages, financial manipulations, infidelities, and monstrous acts of harassment and revenge along the way. "A perceptive character analysis of a malignant, self-centered, charismatic con artist," (Publishers Weekly) this is a fascinating and haunting tale.

"Ann Rule has lead the reader through one man's life as he destroys life after life, if not literally figuratively. You almost wonder at the start, how can the police not KNOW he did this?!?!?! Then you find yourself relating to events, to people who've woven believable tales and before you know it, you're feeling as mislead as the detectives that worked the case! Thank goodness for one cautious driver and another Ann Rule favorite."
