FLOWERS FOR MRS. LUSKIN A True Story of Money, Power, Innocence, and Murderous Lies

Paperback. The Luskin family built a small retail business into a mammoth electronics empire. They had wealth, prestige and enormous power in both their native Baltimore and their adopted Miami - two cities that were stunned by the arrest, trial and subsequent imprisonment of charming, popular Paul Luskin for the attempted murder of his estranged wife, Marie. In the midst of a bitter divorce, Marie Luskin had answered her door expecting a bouquet of fresh cut flowers - but was greeted, instead, by an unknown assailant with a gun. What followed was an outrageous courtroom circus fueled by revelations of jealousy, illicit sex, drug-dealing, shady finances and murder-for-hire. The only thing missing was the truth. Illus. 376pp. mass market p/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Lightly browned pp. o/w Nr. F. with no creasing to covers.
