Interpretation Toward Books No Regrets and Other True Cases (Crime Files #11)

A ship's pilot legendary for guiding mammoth freighters through the narrows of Puget Sound, Rolf Neslund was a proud Norwegian, a ladies' man, and a beloved resident of Washington State's idyllic Lopez Island. Virtually indestructible even into his golden years, he made electrifying headlines more than once: after a ship he was helming crashed into the soaring West Seattle Bridge, causing millions in damages; and following his inexplicable disappearance at age 80. Was he a suicide, a man broken by one costly misstep? Had he run off with a lifelong love? Or did a trail of gruesome evidence lead to the home Rolf shared with his wife, Ruth? On an island where everyone thought they knew their neighbors, the veneer of the Neslunds' marriage masked a convoluted case that took many years to solve. And, indeed, some still believe that the old sea captain will come home one day. "The Sea Captain" is a classic tale as blood chilling as murder itself. Along with six other equally riveting, detailed accounts of destruction and murder committed without conscience or regret, Ann Rule takes readers into frightening places they never could have imagined in No Regrets.

Piece About Books No Regrets and Other True Cases (Crime Files #11)

This is the usual fare from Ann Rule; good guilty pleasure for me! This one has a longer story in it about a Norwegian Sea Captain Rolf Neslund who goes missing and is never found. Then there are five or six smaller short stories, one of which was about a social worker being kidnapped; that rather put my teeth on edge.

*"The Sea Captain": Lopez Island WA 1980: murder of an 80 year old Puget Sound pilot by his wife of 20 years because he discovered that she'd been moving all of his pension and other income out of their joint checking account into one solely in her name--and because she didn't want to share any of his money with his two sons by a different woman*"It (Ain't) Hard Out There for the Pimps": Seattle WA: the brutal rape and near-fatal beating of an 18 year old woman (who may have been working

Wow, this book is everything that I ever dreamed of. I am still reading "The Sea Captain." Hopefully, I will be finished with the book by the end of the week.

I am a big fan of Ann Rule and normally love her books. This was not one of my favorites :(. I like her books with longer feature stories. I don't enjoy the shorter stories at the end - because you don't really get to know the people involved.I will stick with her books that have long, feature stories.

I've always enjoyed Ann Rule's true crime books and this group of seven cases was no exception. It includes the first murder conviction in Washington state in which no body had been found as well as the tale of a counselor kidnapped and held for hours prior to taking a chance on appealing to a small group of hunters at a rest stop for assistance.

Good book in that the stories were not lurid headlines. These were stories of real tragedies and were treated as such. In this particular series, I learned a little more about the tragic history of the area I now call my home (Washington state). The story of the ship captain was characteristic of the spouse that implicitly trusts their spouse a little too much combined with being away from home for great periods of time--not a great combination.

As per always Ann, I couldn't put this book down.
