Book Overview
Susan Wright was a victim...who admitted to killing her husband Jeffrey in their Harris County home in 2003, by stabbing him to death in self-defense. She recounted a harrowing tale of domestic abuse-one that the raging mother of two finally brought to an end-her way. But prosecutors had a story of their own... Susan Wright was a seductress...who set the mood for kinky sex with her unsuspecting husband. After tying Jeffrey to the bed, Susan straddled him, stabbed him 193 times with a butcher knife, then buried his body in a makeshift grave in their backyard. Justice would not come easy. The fury was just beginning. The bloodstained theatrics that unfolded in the Houston courtroom would stun jurors, make national headlines, and brand Susan Wright as both a desperate martyr on the edge and a brutal killer who would be brought to justice.

Very good story!

i REALLY THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ENGAGING BOOK. HOWEVER, CLOSER TO THE END IT STARTS ALL THE LEGAL JARGON AND YOU GET LOST. THE STORY IS ONLY FROM THE BEGINNING TO MIDDLE OF THE BOOK THEN IT STARTS THE TRIAL AND THUS THE BORE FROM MIDDLE TO END. WAY TO MUCH LEGAL JARGON FOR ME. I REALLY LIKED READING THE STORY AND WHAT THE BOOK IS REALLY ABOUT.
True Crime Intrigues me....

It intrigues me because it amazes me how these people think, and how they try to get away with murder. I could not put this book down! Great read.
Worth reading!

I read Susan Wright's story in two days. I couldn't put it down. It could have been longer and it would have been nice to get more detail with regard to the relationship she had with her husband; that part was a little too short and not enough particulars. It was still enjoyable and mesmerizing. I found the prosecuting attorney's part also very interesting. She was relentless in her pursuit to find justice. Bringing the bed into court and re-enacting the murder was unbelievable. I love non-fiction, especially true crime, so this was right up my alley. Check it out; you won't be disappointed.
