BOOK REVIEW: Die, My Love: A True Story of Revenge, Murder, and Two Texas Sisters


5/5


Here's what www.amazon.com says:



The day before Halloween 2004 was the last day on Earth for respected, well-liked college professor Fred Jablin. That morning, a neighbor discovered his body lying in a pool of blood in the driveway of Jablin's Virginia home. Police immediately turned their attentions to the victim's ex-wife, Piper, a petite, pretty Texas lawyer who had lost a bitter custody battle and would do anything to get her kids back. But Piper was in Houston, one thousand miles away, at the time of the slaying and couldn't possibly have been the killer . . . could she?


So began an investigation into one of the most bizarre cases Virginia and Texas law enforcement agencies had ever encountered: a twisted conspiracy of lies, rage, paranoia, manipulation, and savage murder that would ensnare an entire family—including two lethally close look-alike sisters—and reveal the shocking depravities possible when a dangerously disordered mind slips into madness.



My thoughts:


If you're a fan of true crime stories, this is one to read. Piper Jablin was a scorned woman who didn't get her way, so she resorted to cold blooded murder. She did a terrible job of trying to hide that it was her & she almost got her sister sent to prison. I was intrigued & couldn't put the book down!! Must read!!
