A Fever in the Heart probes a volatile triangle of one woman and the two men who trade roles as her lover/husband--until both are murdered, leaving a double widow and a killer. Publicity tie-in to Everything She Ever Wanted, and A Rose For Her Grave, both ABC-TV two-part miniseries. Includes two 8-page photo inserts.

An absorbing portrayal of true-crime lovers who kill and the men and women who are their victims.

Examines several cases of the spouse, lover, family member, or helpful stranger who is totally trusted but whose lethally violent nature, though masterfully disguised, can and will kill.

Explores cases of people killed by trusted spouses, lovers, family members, or helpful strangers who turned on them, including the murder of Chuck Leonard, a middle school counselor who was an odd mix of family man and wild man.

Rule chronicles fateful encounters with the hidden predators among us in this riveting collection. Uncover cases of unfortunate victims who made one tragic mistake: trusting the wrong person-- even someone they'd know intimately, or thought they knew.

The author presents another collection of fascinating and disturbing true-crime stories drawn from her real-life personal files.
