Publisher Description
From a New York Times–bestselling journalist: The story of the murder of a California attorney at the hands of the lethally cunning wife he never doubted.
A wealthy and well-connected legal ace and the proud owner of a champion show horse, Larry McNabney had every reason to love his life. But when he disappeared in September 2001, his wife, Elisa, claimed he joined a cult.
When Larry’s body was found in a shallow grave three months later, Elisa was already gone. In a red convertible Jaguar, her brown hair dyed blond, Mrs. McNabney was speeding toward a new life in Florida—and a brand new identity.
Who was Elisa McNabney? Beautiful, seductive, and ruthless, she had thirty-eight aliases and a rap sheet a mile long. Carlton Smith, coauthor of the true crime classic The Search for the Green River Killer, reveals one shocking surprise after another in this harrowing tale of broken vows and deadly betrayal.

Last Book I Read from this Author
This book was hard to get through and it’s not the first book from this author where I’ve felt that way. A big part of any true crime book is the trial and he barely mentions it. The photo insert was pointless - a bunch of grainy images of houses. No pictures of the key law enforcement personnel and, strikingly, not one of Sarah Dutra, the only person convicted. It might be a style issue, but this is the last for this author.
