About this eBook

A 1980s ex-con takes an unhappy housewife as his sex slave and becomes a cross-country serial killer in this true crime story by the author of Die for Me.

Veteran investigative reporter Lasseter delivers the incredible true story of Cynthia Coffman, the St. Louis housewife who abandoned her family and became the sex-slave of ex-Folsom Prison convict James Gregory Marlow, known to his fellow inmates as “Folsom Wolf.” Together, the pair went on a cross-country spree of sex, torture and murder that ended with their convictions and death sentences.

Ratings and reviews

i usually don't read true crime books because of the sensationalism of gore & too much emphasis on sadistic details. this book was surprising in how well written & informative it turned out. puts more emphasis on humanity. could pass as a sociological study guide into the pathology of ignorance which drives ppl to drugs & violence.

I have never read anything Lasseter had ever written before and I am pleasantly surprised that he is one of those writers that can write about a heinous subject without exploiting them. He covers everything thoroughly without delving too deep making the book drag on forever. I am now a new fan of his books. Getting ready to start another one right now! He also is not biased in his writings he tells the truth even if it does not do the character justice. It is what it is! True Crime!

I'm a HUGE True Crime fan and this book did not disappoint! Very well written, and with great attention to detail.

About the author

Don Lasseter has written five true crime books for Pinnacle, plus sixteen magazine articles that were reprinted in Pinnacle's anthology books about murders. In addition to being a crime writer, Mr. Lasseter is a WWII historian who frequently lectures on the subject in schools, at service clubs, and for veteran's groups. He accompanies his talks with slide packages entitled "WWII, Then and Now," consisting of photos he took while actually retracing most major battles in Western Europe and in the South Pacific. Taking black and white combat photos with him, Mr. Lasseter laboriously searched for the exact spots on which the photographers stood, and shot the same scenes as they look today. He accumulated over 1500 such pictures associated with various battles including the Normandy invasion, Battle of the Bulge, crossing the Rhine, taking Berlin, and other major engagements. A native Californian, Mr. Lasseter resides in Orange County. He has served as guest lecturer in criminology classes at California State University, Fullerton. Hollywood history is Mr. Lasseter's third major interest. His personal library includes an extensive collection of movie books, and he takes pride in being able to name hundreds of old character actors whose faces are often seen in classic films. One day, Lasseter says, he will write books, both fiction and non-fiction, about the golden era of film production and the people involved.
