If You Really Loved Me

By: Ann Rule

Narrated by: Cassandra Campbell

There was only one way to please her father: Murder his wife....

David Brown was the consummate entrepreneur: a computer wizard and millionaire by age thirty-two. When his beautiful young wife was shot to death as she slept, Brown's fourteen-year-old daughter, Cinnamon, confessed to killing her stepmother. The California courts sentenced her harshly: twenty-four years to life. But in the wake of Cinnamon's murder conviction, thanks in part to two determined lawmen, the twisted private world of David Brown himself unfolded with astonishing clarity -- revealing a trail of perverse love, twisted secrets, and evil mind games. A complex and often dangerous investigation suggested a horrifying scenario: Was the seemingly bland David Brown really a stone-cold killer who convinced his own daughter to prove her love by killing for him? A man who turned young women into his own personal slaves, who collected nearly $1 million in insurance money, and married his dead wife's teenage sister, David Brown was a sociopath who would stop at nothing...a deadly charmer who almost got away with everything.

Ann Rule; Rules!

In the world of real crime and intrigue, Ann Rule’s books are tops! This book certainly doesn’t disappoint as she takes the reader through all of her character’s lives from beginning to end. I won’t say anything that will spoil the story,—just read for yourself!

Great flow!

Could have been a little shorter as I felt some stuff was irrelevant, but otherwise it was a very enjoyable listen!

One of the very best Ann Rule books.

What a story… and as always Ann tells it brilliantly. Narration is also an A+!

Another great Ann Rule book!

Ann Rule was the best true crime author ever. Very complete background on all of the stories. The narrator does an excellent job.
