Feb 2018

about a woman who spent two years telling people her husband was a raging alcoholic who would beat her, threaten her and her sons' lives, and that she was too terrified to leave him. Then she went with him on a camping trip and murdered him. Alas, that woman only had to serve 12 years in jail.

Ann Rule's books are always good.

Now it's back to The Berlin Project by Gregory Benford.
