About this ebook
A Murdered Husband. . .
Gulf War veteran Doug Gissendaner would do anything for a friend, a stranger, or the wife who broke every rule in the marriage book. Now, investigators were scouring the Georgia woods not far from Doug's home. They'd already found the charred wreckage of his car. They knew they were looking for a body. . .
A Hitman Who Killed For Love. . .
Gregory Owen had been having an on-again, off-again affair with Doug's wife for years. Then Kelly Gissendaner told Greg it was time for her husband to die. With a knife and a plan, Greg forced Doug to drive into the woods. When Greg finished his savage, cold-blooded deed, Kelly showed up to make sure Doug was dead.
A Woman On Death Row. . .
This is the astounding true story of the only woman on Georgia's Death Row and the chilling, account of how she got there. From the hold Kelly had over a good and decent man to her dramatic, controversial trial, First We'll Kill My Husband captures the lies, schemes, and manipulations of a woman totally bent on murder. . .
Includes 16 pages of shocking photos!

Actually the story is quite OK, basically a good true crime story that has been well written. Where it fails badly is in the proof reading with so many words which run into each without spacing. Not occasionally but almost every sentence will have a number of words without spacinng between them and that makes it a very difficult book to read. Pity because without that issue it is easily a 4 star value.

So many typing errors made it hard to read. Story was good but there were no spaces between many words.

The book was interesting and informative, however there were a lot of words that ran together, and I often had to reread a sentence.
