PREACHER'S GIRL The Life and Crimes of Blanche Taylor Moore

Paperback. In 1989, doctors in Burlington, North Carolina, were baffled by the mysterious, debilitating disease that had struck down 55yr old Dwight Moore. Day by day, his condition inexplicably worsened - despite the best efforts of the hospital staff...and the gentle ministrations of his devoted wife Blanche Taylor Moore - the charming and vivacious daughter of a travelling minister...the devout born-again Christian who spent nearly every waking moment at her ailing husband's bedside. And their investigation would ultimately expose a shocking, sordid history of abuse, violence and sexual outrage - and uncover the well-hidden trail of a perfect psychopath who had killed before...and was killing again. Illus. 376pp. mass market p/back. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. V. lightly browned pp. o/w Nr. F. with no creasing to covers.
