For months, the young son of Bart and Jennifer Corbin had told anyone who would listen that he was afraid of the violence that went on behind the closed doors of his elegant Georgia home. Then on the morning of December 4, 2004, 7-year-old Dalton ran to a neighbor's house, sobbing. What was uncovered was almost unbelievable to the Corbins' neighbors: Jennifer Corbin was engaged in a secret cyber-sex lesbian affair and successful dentist Bart Corbin had a bizarre and frightening past.

Jennifer Corbin's death looked like suicide. But that didn't fool young Dalton, and in the coming weeks the police uncovered an even more horrifying story: Dr. Corbin had been left by a woman before, and he may have gotten away with murder once but justice would make sure that he stood trial this time.

I have to say that I really enjoyed this book. I actually turned on the television last night and saw that a television movie of the case was being broadcast. I didn't watch it, but I certainly give this book an A!

For months, the young son of Bart and Jennifer Corbin had told people that he was afraid of violence in their posh, suburban Georgia home. Then, on the morning of December 4, 2004, neighbors found sever-year-old Dalton Corbin at their front door sobbing. Until then no one could have seen what was going on behind closed doors; that beautiful Jennifer Corbin was immersed in a cyber-sex lesbian affair- or that Bart, now a wealthy dentist, had a bizarre, frightening past...

Jennifer Corbin's death looked like a suicide, but the crime didn't fool young Dalton, and in the coming weeks an even more horrifying story emerged; that Dr. Corbin had been left by a woman once before and that time he may have gotten away with murder. But this time justice would be served.
