EMPTY PROMISES by Ann Rule

An adulterous affair that slashed the trust in a seemingly ideal marriage...the violence that ensued...a missing person's search that was ultimately solved by forensic science, and the dedicated kindness of the victim's friends.

From traditional courtships to internet relationships, the passions that rule the heart can also fuel the destructive fires of rage, jealousy and murder.  In this seventh collection drawn from her personal crime files, Ann Rule brilliantly dissects the convoluted love affairs that all too often end in violence.  There are stalkers driven by obsession, gay lovers who learn too late that things are not as they appear, conjugal visits in the shadow of prison walls and even more shocking liaisons.
