A newlywed couple has a murderous celebration the day after their wedding in this classic true-crime thriller by New York Times bestselling journalist M. William Phelps. “Phelps is the Harlan Coben of real-life thrillers.” —Allison Brennan A deadly obsession leads to a deadly wedding gift… On a hot Florida night in 2003, aspiring model Sandee Rozzo drove into her garage after a long shift at a local bar. Waiting in the shadows was a killer who fired eight bullets point-blank into her chest. The police immediately suspected Timothy Alvin “Tracey” Humphrey, the ex she had recently agreed to testify against for imprisoning and raping her. But Tracey wasn’t just a bodybuilder who knew how to shape his body. He was a cold-blooded psychopath who could manipulate 19-year-old Ashley Laney into falling in love with him. On their wedding night, he made a strange request—one that would end in a tragic and brutal murder. The police knew Humphrey was the likely suspect, but he had an alibi for the time of the shooting. How could they prove that, even if he didn’t pull the trigger, he was the psychopath behind Sandee’s murder? It would all come down to a bold prison escape, a manhunt for a killer, and an explosive trial . . .
