Bundy dans Un tueur si proche, Ann Rule n'a pas oublié qu'elle a été flic, et la rigueur de ses investigations lui vaut un triomphe international. L'histoire qu'elle rapporte ici lui a pourtant donné du fil à retordre : elle débute comme un conte de fées, par un mariage sur une plage hawaiienne, et vire au cauchemar dans un camping de l'Oregon, à l'automne 2000.

Entre les partisans de l'une et de l'autre, Ann Rule démêle l'écheveau de mensonges, d'ambitions et de trahisons qui conduisit à une tragédie insensée. -- 4e de couvLes grands crimes de l'histoire (Le Livre de poche #6245)
