The listing, Ann Rule's true crime "Empty Promises" has ended.
When it comes to true crime Ann Rule is as good as it gets! This paperback book of 524 pages and published in 2001 is in good condition. It has 16 pages of photographs. The back cover reads: "In this unnerving collection drawn from her personal crime files Ann Rule brilliantly dissects the convoluted love affairs that all too often end in violence. Expertly analyzing a shocking headline case, Rule unmasks the deadly motives inside a seemingly idyllic marriage: a beautiful young wife, a rising star in America's top-ranked computer corporation, and a prosperous husband, the scion of a family building business. Empty Promises recounts several other cases where the search for love brought only lies and betrayal - a cautionary primer, perhaps, for those who trust too much too soon. Powerful because they strike so close to home, the cases in this book will leave readers shaken by the realities of love gone terribly - and fatally - wrong." This book is one of her best. Sorry about the lack of a photo but I tried to upload one and it just wouldn't work, sob.
