Description

"A great true crime story...Readers will feel the effects of Phelps' skill from beginning to end." - Stephen Singular

Big and brash, Jeff Zack didn't hide his rough lifestyle. And when he died, it was in plain sight: executed in the parking lot of a BJ's Wholesale Club in Akron, Ohio, by a motorcycle-riding assassin dressed in black.

"Phelps uses a unique combination of investigative skills and narrative insight to give readers an exclusive, insider's look." - Anne Bremner

Jeff Zack's murder stunned investigators - but then, so did his life. A long list of people might have had reasons to want Zack dead, including the loyal wife he had humiliated and the wealthy nightclub owner whose wife - a blond, hard-bodied beauty queen - he openly dated. But the truth would get even stranger...

"Phelps is a first-rate investigator." - Dr. Michael M. Baden

In this shocking true story of adultery, mind games, lies, wealth and sexual liaisons in upscale Middle America, true-crime master M. William Phelps tells the astounding story of a man who loved the wrong woman - and was brutally murdered by a killer with the deadliest possible motive of all...

Phelps investigates the evidence surrounding the murder of Jeff Zack in the parking lot of BJ's Wholesale Club in Akron, Ohio. After he was killed by an unknown person clad in black, the police found many who had reasons to want Zack dead. J. Charles reads this true-crime story in even, sonorous tones. He relates the details of the investigation with deliberation. The convoluted story of betrayal, adultery, violence, and lies confounds the investigators. Did Zack's wife kill him in the heat of an argument, or was it the cuckolded husband who owned Akron's most famous nightclub? Phelps follows all the clues, and Charles recounts each twist and turn of the case. M.B.K. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
