<div>From a New York Times&ndash;bestselling author: A searing account of cold-blooded murder as told by &ldquo;one of the chief practitioners of the true crime genre&rdquo; (The Baltimore Sun). Michael Peterson was a decorated war veteran and bestselling novelist. His wife, Kathleen, was a high-powered executive and devoted mother. To everyone who knew them, they seemed to be the perfect couple living a life most people would kill for. Then came the tragic night Michael found Kathleen at the bottom of the stairs in a pool of blood. He claimed her death was an accident. The prosecution thought different and put him on trial&mdash;and behind bars. Then, in a stunning reversal, a judge gave Michael another chance to stand trial as his children steadfastly proclaimed his innocence. But what happened next would stun observers as new evidence and bizarre theories were introduced in a legal battle that would drag on until it became one of the longest trials in state history. Aphrodite Jones draws on exclusive interviews and revelatory facts to deliver &ldquo;a richly detailed and deeply researched tale of a greedy, sociopathic killer&rdquo; (Caitlin Rother, New York Times&ndash;bestselling author).</div>

A Perfect Husband

<div>An FBI agent&rsquo;s affair with his informant ends in murder in this true crime account of the notorious case by the New York Times bestselling author. At twenty-seven years old, Susan Daniels Smith was a dirt poor, divorced mother of two living in rural Kentucky. She prayed for a Prince Charming to come to her rescue, and when good-looking FBI agent Mark Putnam entered her life, she thought those prayers had been answered. She was dead wrong. Their relationship began when Susan agreed to be Mark&#39;s paid informant in an investigation of her ex-husband&#39;s criminal friends. It quickly grew into an illicit affair that consumed their lives for nearly two years&mdash;until she became pregnant. Susan made demands, threatening to expose Mark in ways that ruined his career and marriage. On June 8, 1989, Mark took Susan for a drive into the hills to discuss her insistence on marriage. She was never heard from again. The FBI Killer recounts the bizarre events that forced Mark Putnam to confess to brutally killing his lover, then covering up his crime for more than a year.</div>
