Less than two months later, their dream exploded in terror and murder: their beautiful home mysteriously burned to the ground and Tom was convicted of the brutal slaying of his mother and father. \u003cbr\u003e Pat's only brother had died in a puzzling suicide, her grandparents-in-law were poisoned with arsenic, and no one -- from her wealthy employers to her own children -- was safe when Pat Allanson didn't get her way. It took Georgia lawmen more than two decades to stop her for good -- if indeed they have. \u003cbr\u003e In this fascinating account, Ann Rule delivers a tour de force: a whirlwind of misguided love, denial, guilt, and passions out of control; a series of brilliantly manipulated crimes; the bizarre and horrifying tale of two families brought to ruin; and, at the center of it all, the heartless, supremely selfish sociopath whose evil hid behind soft words and gentle manners, but who destroyed -- without mercy -- those who loved her.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eReview(s):\u003cbr\u003e\"Rule hits the bull's-eye.\" -- \u003ci\u003ePublisher's Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"A headlong plunge into the depths of a sociopathic mind, told with a master's hand.\" -- \u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eISBN:  9780671690717\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ","brand":"Pocket Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":40941751828686,"sku":"9780671690717","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7029\/7806\/products\/O_0c4cb32f-ab3e-423d-97ea-ccfd69cdfafe.jpg?v=1645909222","url":"https:\/\/pickwickbookshop.com\/products\/9780671690717","provider":"Pickwick Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
