A true crime account of a highly publicized 1985 murder in Florida. Members of a wealthy family originally from Lancaster, PA, were killed by a pipe bomb in their car. The son, Steven Benson, was convicted of the murder of his mother and brother and injury to his sister. His sister later assisted the author in the writing of this book.
From Google Books: "The Benson pipe-bomb murder drama is the gripping focus of this story of a tobacco dynasty, failed ambition, drugs, violence, and a family tragedy of shattering proportions, all told by a reporter who held exclusive rights to the story. 35 pages of black-and-white photographs."
"A story of greed, sex, illegitimacy, drugs, betrayal, and matricide, this book discloses the true story behind the bombing murders of tobacco heiress Margaret Benson and one of her sons." [from the publisher]
