Although I was working in corporate communications while the case unfolded, I watched it with professional interest and marveled at the astounding facts and twists and turns. When I was deciding to retire from the corporate world, I took a chance and called the defense attorney in the case, who would become my co-author. I was thrilled that Joel Schwartz said he and his client, the husband in the case, had received inquiries about doing a book but had never pursued any of them. Joel and I met and realized we had the chemistry and the ability - with Russ Faria's cooperation - to turn the Faria/Pam Hupp story into a book we hoped readers would find compelling and fascinating. We hope that's what we've done. (less)
