About this ebook
She thought she'd found Mr. Right—until it all went murderously wrong—in this true-crime tale with "all the elements of a grand tragedy" ( Library Journal).
Elizabeth Lochtefeld was a glowing, charismatic, and driven businesswoman who'd built a small fortune in Manhattan before settling into a new life in one of America's most elite resort communities. In her mid-forties, she planned to dedicate the rest of her life to charity—and to marry and finally start a family of her own.
When Lochtefeld met thirty-seven-year-old Tim Toolan—a tall, handsome Columbia graduate and Wall Street ace who'd achieved a VP position at Smith Barney—she thought she'd found Mr. Right. She told friends she was in love. She hinted at marriage. But soon she saw past the golden-boy facade, finding a deeply troubled man with a history of erratic behavior—a man given to violent mood swings who'd been fired from his job after trying to steal an $80,000 Roman bust from a Park Avenue antiques show. And two days after she ended the affair, she lay dead on the floor of her Nantucket cottage . . .
"Poignant [and] truly chilling." — Kirkus Reviews
