A TRUE STORY OF GREED, CUNNING AND THE PERFECT MURDER. As gripping as Fatal Vision and In Cold Blood! COVER PHOTO: Mort Engel Studio. CONTENTS: Prologue; PART I The Scent; PART II The Hunt; PART III The Kill; Epilogue. SYNOPSIS: SHE WAS WEALTHY, BEAUTIFUL, AND LONELY. HER BODY IS SOMEWHERE IN THE SWISS ALPS. LOS ANGELES, 1970. Thomas Devins, known as The Fox, is convicted of murder in the first degree. His alleged victim: Norma Wilson, the rich, bejewelled woman he accompanied on a European investment trip. Her disappearance led to a two-year hunt for evidence--without a body. And Thomas Devins was the most elusive, brilliant suspect two dauntless investigators had ever trailed. For Investigator Bill Burnett, it first appeared to be a simple missing persons case. But as he probed into the background of Thomas Devins, he scented murder. He concluded that Devins was more than a charming con man--he was a master sociopath who knew the law and manipulated the police, the press and his friends with amazing skill. Burnett and his partner, Prosecutor Steve Trott, had to reconstruct a cold-blooded crime--searching for the facts from California to Canada to Europe. Here is the true story of their hunt: a dramatic, suspense-filled tale of gruesome murder and a chilling portrait of a malevolent, perfect crime. Suspect Thomas Devins overturned this conviction on appeal, and walked away as a free man. - and - Thomas Devins: From his L.A. car-parking days, he had hustled his way successfully through countless real-estate deals. Handsome, smooth and utterly charming, he conned Norma Wilson into a European jaunt. Somewhere in the Swiss Alps, he allegedly shot her dead--and scattered her body throughout the mountains. Norma Wilson: Her marriage to a younger man wasn't enough, and for Devins, she was easy prey. She trusted him with her money and her affections--and Devins was the last person to see her alive. Robert Forget: The tough, not-too-bright Canadian was Devins' perfect pawn. He went to Europe as Norma's bodyguard, but chickened out of the murder plan. And when Devins game him Norma's jewels, he was greedy--and stupid--enough to keep them. Bill Burnett: In the D.A.'s office, they called him "cowboy." Lanky, easygoing, Burnett was a bloodhound of an investigator--and nothing could shake him off Devins' trail. Steve Trott: He had to make a case that was a prosecutor's nightmare--uncertain jurisdiction, no body and the shiftless Forget as his star witness. Working closely with Burnett, he achieved the impossible: putting Devins on trial for murder. Lawrence Taylor is a criminal attorney with his own practice in Los Angeles. He has been a deputy public defender, a deputy district attorney, and a deputy county counsel; in the latter capacity, he represented the Sheriff's Department and advised the trial judge in People v. Charles Manson. As a defense attorney, he successfully argued to the Supreme Court for a reversal of the death penalty in the case made famous by Joseph Wambaugh's The Onion Field. In 1975, Mr. Taylor was privately retained by the Attorney General of Montana to investigate and prosecute high-level political corruption; Bill Burnett served as a special investigator during this prosecution. Mr. Taylor serves periodically as Judge Pro Tem, lectures in criminal law at universities, and contributes broadly to the field of legal literature; his most recent textbook is Criminal Appeals. He is an ex-Marine, was briefly a professional light-heavyweight boxer, and is an ardent boater--having once single-handed his sailboat through the Bahamas for six months.
