She had beaten Sheila unconscious in their Sacramento apartment days earlier, then locked her in a closet to die. But this wasn't the first horrific crime she'd committed against her own children. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The previous summer, Knorr had shot Sheila's sister Suesan, then ordered her son to dig the bullet out of the girl's back with a knife to hide the evidence. The infection that resulted led to delirium--at which point Knorr and her two sons drove Suesan into the mountains, doused her with gasoline, and set her on fire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e It would be almost a decade before her youngest daughter, Terry Knorr Graves, revealed her mother's history of unfathomable violence. At first, she was met with disbelief by law enforcement and even her own therapist. But eventually, the truth about her monstrous abuse emerged--and here, an award-winning journalist details the jealousy, rage, and domineering behavior that escalated into homicide and shattered a family. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e A former reporter for the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles\u003c\/i\u003e\u003ci\u003eTimes\u003c\/i\u003e and the author of true-crime classics including \u003ci\u003eAngel of Darkness\u003c\/i\u003e, about serial killer Randy Kroft, and \u003ci\u003eBlood Cold\u003c\/i\u003e, about Robert Blake and Bonny Lee Bakley, Dennis McDougal reveals the shocking depths of depravity behind a case that made headlines across the nation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 294\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.67 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 21, 2015\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42701491634239,"sku":"9781504023153","price":26.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/7c2b4281a4976b374152a72344a8cc73.webp?v=1765020847","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/mothers-day-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
