Small Sacrifices A True Story Of Passion and Murder / Ann Rule
https://articulo.mercadolibre.cl/MLC-434696769-small-sacrifices-a-true-story-of-passion-murder-ann-rule-_JM
This searching analysis of the shooting of three children in Oregon by their mother devolves into a study of personality. In May of 1983, Diane Downs drove to a Williamette Valley hospital emergency room with her children, all gravely wounded; one did not survive the first hour, and the other two were disabled for life. Downs initially told of a ""bushy-haired stranger'' who had committed the crime, but frequently changed her story. Under police questioning she recalled her childhood with a cold, domineering father who abused her sexually, her weak mother, a rape by one of her bosses, her failed marriage and many men with whom she had sex. One of these men, whom she claimed to love, did not want children, and that may have prompted the crime, speculates the author. The greatest strength of this book is the exploration by ex-policewoman Rule (The Stranger Beside Me of the aberrant personality of Downs, who is now imprisoned and not eligible for parole until 2009.
Ann Rule (born Stackhouse; October 22, 1931 - July 26, 2015) was an American writer who rose to fame with her crime nonfiction book The Stranger Beside Me, in which Rule recounts the life of the murderer in American series Ted Bundy, who in turn was a co-worker of Rule.
