Publisher's Summary

The Woman: She was a beautiful, gifted descendant of Lady Astor. But Elizabeth Haysom was also a spoiled, willful daughter of privilege.

The Lover: He was the brilliant young son of a German diplomat. But his love for Elizabeth would draw Jens Soering into a web of madness and murder.

The Murder: When Elizabeth's parents were found savagely butchered in their elegant Virginia country home, she and Jens fled to Europe - igniting an international manhunt that spanned three continents.

The Trial: The sensational courtroom drama that followed painted a twisted portrait of two golden youths consumed by hatred and perverse fantasies. Elizabeth's startling testimony - and intimations of acts and desires that went beyond mere murder - would reveal a tangled web of dark secrets and deadly obsession.

Contains mature themes.

Stick with it

A slow start but if you stick with it till chapter 3 or 4 it starts to hook you in. The detail is really excellent. Recommend for all True Crime lovers.
