(Mass Market Paperback)
Praying for a happy ending, friends and family stood by Laci's grieving husband Scott. Four months later, Laci's decomposed body was found in the murky waters of San Francisco Bay. The body of her child had washed ashore about a mile away, after a possible "coffin birth." It was a sad closure to an exhaustive search, and a grim end to a marriage that by all accounts had appeared to be perfect.
Scott Peterson's behavior had cast a mysterious shadow over the death of his pregnant wife: his alibi on the day of the disappearance was questionable; he admitted to an affair with another woman; and when he was finally charged with capital murder, he had altered his appearance. Almost immediately, the media condemned Scott, even though he maintains his innocence. Is Scott Peterson a victim of circumstantial evidence? Despite the state attorney general's claim of a "slam dunk", the case that has gripped the nation is much more complex, and is yielding even more questions, doubts, accusations, and shocking revelations.

January 08, 2008: I really liked this book. When i first heard of this case a few years back it caught my interest. I woud always read about the case in People Magazine and see it on the news. I think it is terrible what happened. Reading this book gave me so much more information then i ever could have recieved by just reading magazines.

May 18, 2007: This book is, more or less, a joke. I can't even bring myself to finish it, it's so badly done. The book is chock-full of errors, I know this from reading Sharon Rocha's book and reading the information on the website, this book is inaccurate and it makes the author seem unintelligent. Bottom line: If you can't take the time to research your story right and try to get the best and most accurate information possible, you shouldn't be writing a book. I doubt I will ever purchase books from this author, or this series of True Crime books again. I wouldn't reccomend this book to anyone, not anyone who wants a truthful account of the tragedy that is the Laci Peterson story. I think the author was just trying to cash in on someone else's misfortune. Sorry to say, but that's the vibe I got from it.
