Despite being ruled a murder-suicide, Lainey discovers clues that suggest otherwise and teams up with a local policeman to investigate. As she delves deeper, she uncovers more motives and suspects, including the college president. With the help of a new friend and suspicions of an FBI agent, Lainey sets out to solve the case and prove her theory. The Serial Killer Beside Me: Lainey Quilholt is caught up in a serial killer investigation after two deaths rock her small town near the Mississippi. As tensions rise and her best friend is abducted, Lainey vows to bring the killer to justice, even if it means putting her own life at risk.

Pages : 252
Book Description
Bound to Die is the true crime story of Florida serial killer Bobby Joe Long, who was convicted of the heinous killings of nine women in 1984 in the Tampa Bay area. The first body of 19-year-old disco dancer Lana Long was found in a field on Mother's Day with her legs grotesquely ripped apart. Six months later, the bloody rampage ended when the ninth victim was discovered. All had been tortured with ropes and savagely beaten and raped. The killer's confession of his crimes is haunting. The vividly rendered results of his trials and appeals are equally shocking. First published by Kensington, NY in 1995, Bound to Die was internationally recognized. It received seven mass media printings and was issued in hardback as a Doubleday Mystery Guild Book Club selection. This second edition features a new foreword on a capital case which is still considered a definitive example of excellent police detection before DNA. Multiple television presentations have been made based on this book, some including the author's participation.
