Synopsis

Dan Broderick was one of California's most successful attorneys; his wife, Betty, a beautiful socialite. But when Betty discovered Dan's hidden life, the façade of LaJolla's golden couple was shattered. What followed was a vicious five-year battle that finally ended in a shocking double-murder.

A Harvard Law School graduate, Dan manipulated the law to strip Betty of everything she loved: her home, her friends—even her children. When she frantically tried to fight back, he had her committed to a mental hospital. His new wife, Linda, even sent the once-beautiful Betty wrinkle cream ads and weight loss pamphlets.

Consumed by hatred and thoughts of revenge, Betty's rage exploded on the night of November 5, 1989. Before the sun rose the next day, Dan Broderick and his gorgeous new wife were dead—their bullet-riddled bodies wrapped in the blood-soaked sheets of their bed.

3.5 Stars. The writing isn’t really that impressive. It’s not bad in and of itself, but there’s a lot of commentary like ‘She wore an electric blue dress which seemed to shout hopefulness’. What color signifies rolling my eyes? Based on that, I’d rate this one even lower, but I read a lot of trashy......more

Goodreads review by Paul on August 24, 2011

Okay - so this is a pulpy book about Betty Broderick. And the writing was, well, . . . basic. Like written for a sixth-grade reading level audience. However, I could NOT put this book down. The story is so horrible, so sad. Betty Broderick is your worse nightmare -- but her husband was a bizarre, le......more
