Deadly Secrets

By: M. William Phelps

Narrated by: J. Charles

Behind a veil of tranquility....

In the lovely town of Pleasant Valley in upstate New York, the maple trees were ablaze with fall's blood-red color. The air was crisp. And a woman named Susan Fassett left her weekly choir practice at a church - when a killer emerged from the shadows and mercilessly gunned her down.

....was a realm of sexual depravity where murder was the last sin.

Stunned, the police immediately suspected Susan Fassett's husband and surrounded his home. They couldn't have been more wrong. Susan Fassett had been living a secret life, lost in a world of dominance, lesbian sex, betrayal - and a depraved plan for murder. After detectives untangled a web of secrets and corruption hidden in plain sight, the town of Pleasant Valley would be rocked again when a shocking trial exposed the whole sordid truth.

Strange TRUE CRIME

A strange and unusual story, yet involving seemingly ordinary women who were caught up in deadly plans of a man ready to murder. The book covers the story very well. I found some of the detailed questioning perhaps overdone, but still worth reading!

True crime at its best

M. William Phelps never disappoints. I could visualize not only the crime itself but the people behind the crime as well. Can’t wait to download another one. If you like true crime, stories, this one is a must.

Great Book!

A chilling account of a murder-for-threat plot, a master manipulator and the tragedy of both victims and criminals. One of the best!

victim side rather than killer 2 thumbs up

This was done unbiased and gave a better job telling the victims side and how the murder affected the family ,friends and community. I am glad it was not all about the murderer or the mastermind behind it was just some wannabe mobster. Pathetic as he was . Great job
