 Deadly
Secrets
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...
Stunned, the police immediately suspect Susan Fassett's
husband and surround his home. They couldn't have been more
wrong. Susan Fassett had been living a secret life,
entangled in a passionate web 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...
This gripping book has extortion, prostitution, government
corruption, group sex and murder at its core. Amazingly, the
killer, Dawn Silvernail, who refused to speak to reporters
about the case, gave M. William Phelps exclusive interviews.
“That is how this case is being marketed,” Phelps said
recently. “And, for the most part, it is all true, in some
sort of quasi-Lifetime Television way. For me, however, this
book is about hubris, abuse of power, small-town politics
gone haywire (a brilliant word, incidentally, few of us use
anymore), and influence going to one man’s head. But it is
also about a son coming to terms with the death of his
mother, who he valued as his best friend. This book proves
that when a sociopath truly wants you dead, there’s very
little you can do to stop it.”
