Story Behind The Book
This is the story about a family and a group of acquaintances whose lives are entwined in jealousy, murder, incest, fraud, and insanity. Mayleen Pelman has two sons. The question arises as to who the father of each is. Mayleen murders a woman who has twins because the woman is having a relationship with a man who Mayleen is in love with. One of the twins is later murdered as is the man Mayleen loves. Along with that murder, Mayleen's first husband is killed in a barroom fight, then her boyfriend is killed, next her prostitute sister, and others fall along the way. It is a complex story, fast paced, with twelve murders and ten suspects.
