520    Edgar Award Winner: The "gripping" true story of a 
       beautiful Texas socialite, her ambitious husband, and a 
       string of mysterious deaths (Los Angeles Times). Joan 
       Robinson Hill was a world-class equestrian, a glamorous 
       member of Houston high society, and the wife of Dr. John 
       Hill, a handsome and successful plastic surgeon. Her 
       father, Ash Robinson, was a charismatic oil tycoon 
       obsessed with making his daughter's every dream come true.
       Rich, attractive, and reckless, Joan was one of the most 
       celebrated women in a town infatuated with money, power, 
       and fame. Then one morning in 1969, she fell mysteriously 
       ill. The sordid events that followed comprise "what may be
       the most compelling and complex case in crime annals" (Ann
       Rule, bestselling author of The Stranger Beside Me). From 
       the elegant mansions of River Oaks, one of America's most 
       exclusive neighborhoods, to a seedy underworld of 
       prostitution and murder-for-hire, New York Times --
       bestselling author Thomas Thompson tracks down every 
       bizarre motive and enigmatic clue to weave a fascinating 
       tale of lust and vengeance. Full of colorful characters, 
       shocking twists, and deadly secrets, Blood and Money is 
       "an absolute spellbinder" and true crime masterpiece 
       (Newsweek).
