Book Description

June 2003
Laci Peterson was young, vibrant, and eight months' pregnant when she disappeared from upscale Modesto, California. Although her husband, Scott Peterson, claims he left for a fishing trip that morning never to see his wife again, soon enough details emerged of a recently purchased insurance policy and an adulterous affair. The National Enquirer was the first to bring you the truth behind the Petersons' failing marriage, including photographs and evidence of Scott's philandering ways, and now we go in depth to detail a shocking crime of love, betrayal, and murder.

3.0 out of 5 stars Was this book edited?, July 2, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Murder of Laci Peterson (Paperback)
In the beginning of this book, it says Lacy's birthday is May 4th, 1975 (the day before mine), but when the author talks about Laci's memorial service on April 27th, 2003, he says Laci would have turned 28 that day. A caption of one of the photos says the same thing.

When the author first mentions Marc Klaas, whose daughter Polly was kidnapped and murdered, he says it happened in 1993. Near the end of the book, he says Richard Davis kidnapped her in 1983. I was BORN in 1983! The incorrect year appears twice in that paragraph.

This book is full of interesting tidbits about the case, but some readers will still catch onto incorrect information such as dates and years. It makes me wonder if the author included other incorrect information in his book. I can't wait until the trial is over and better authors write better books with all the grisly details we didn't have access to during the investigation and the trial.

1.0 out of 5 stars Is this a joke?!!!!, January 11, 2006
This review is from: Murder of Laci Peterson (Paperback)
You may as well pick up any choice tabloid and believe it as gospel truth if you give this book the time of day. Unfounded accounts and blatant lies are countless in this book. I bought two of them, one for me and another for my best friend. I am suprised she doesn't hate me now!!! LOL! Seriously though, it is based off of rumors and pure speculation. It was not worth a red cent. Don't waste your time with this one. Instead, get a real account of the tragedy like Catherine Crier's book,"A Deadly Game" or Sharon Rocha's,"For Laci". All I can really tell you, is if you must read this book after reading my review, is you will totally agree with me and live in regret.

4.0 out of 5 stars WWARD?, August 8, 2003
By 
TundraVision (o/~ from the Land of Sky Blue Waters o/~) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Murder of Laci Peterson (Paperback)
Ok, I admit it: I cheat my diet now and then with a nutritious Krispy Kreme donut, & sometimes I read the ever erudite Enquirer - what else to do when stranded in a slow-moving check-out line? Cliff Linedecker, Best-Selling Author in his own write, has teamed with National Enquirer staffers in several recent rush-to-print-while-the-story's-still hot "true crime" books. And the results are, amazingly, pretty good.

This book goes beyond the quickie sound bites and glimmers we all saw on TV. It makes Scott Peterson look even more guilty. But yes, the criminal justice jurisprudence of the United States of America insists that one is innocent until proven guilty. Pray, Scott, that your potential jury pool does not read this book!

WWARD? What Would Ann Rule (reigning diva of True Crime Writing) Do? Wait until the jury verdict is in and at least some of the seemingly endless appeals are exhausted. So, while reading this book, remember the tabloid from which it sprang: an entertaining diversion, a guilty pleasure about as substantial and nutritious as a Krispy Kreme, and devour them both. Reviewed by TundraVision.
