    WITH EVERY BOOK I WRITE--and this is number 27-Ⅰ realize more just how many lives are affected when one cruel and conscienceless person decides to take another human being's life. Murder is not only a matter of a single death; there are many "little deaths" as homicide replicates its evil in countless lives left behind, changing them for-ever. Even if there are no more homicides committed by a particular killer, I know now that violent death never stops reverberating among those who suffer such terrible 10ss.The pain resonates like an echo in a series of tunnels--parents lose beloved children, spouses are torn from one another, and children too young to fully grasp the finality of death are destined to mature to a bleak point where they will have to understand what forever means.

    Bart Corbin appeared to share an idyllic life with his pretty wife,Jennifer: a home in an upscale Atlanta suburb, two adorable young sons. But there were secrets below the surface--including an affair of Bart's that drove Jenn to look for love on the Internet--that would prove deadly on the Deceraber morning Jenn was found with a single gunshot wound to her head. Police suspected suicide,but her disbelieving family knew Jenn had been excited to move on from Bart with someone she had met online. As disturbing clues emerged, a relentless county investigator dredged up a shattering revelation: fourteen years earlier, Bart Corbin's former girlfriend,lovely dental student Dolly Hearn, also died--a gunshot wound to her head that was ruled a suicide. It was a chilling link in the chain that would ensnare the remorseless killer behind both tragic deaths: Bart Corbin.
    And if you think you know everything about this outright shocking case, discover the truth behind the headlines--and one incredible irony on which the entire case turned--in.
