About This Item
New York: New American Library, 1987. First Edition, First Printing. . Hardcover. Fine/Near Fine. Authored by New York Assistant District Attorney Robert K. Tanenbaum, who also worked on the Kennedy assassination investigation and the Hillside Strangler case, and Peter S. Greenberg, a nationally syndicated columnist and producer,this is the True Crime account of Charles Yukl, a gifted piano teacher, sensitive and reserved, who brutally murdered an young, aspiring actress, was caught and convicted of his crime, and then, eight years later, released from prison to act out his violent sexual fantasies a second time. Boards and text are clean and unmarked, tight and square, not remaindered. The dustjacket shows only some light surface and edge wear, with minor creasing at the top of the spine, no tears or chipping, not price-clipped. A collectable copy of this classic case of justice system failure.
