Summary
The terrifying #1 New York Times bestseller about the unbreakable ties of blood. The first bodies found were those of a feisty millionaire widow and her daughter in their posh Louisville, Kentucky, home. Months later, another wealthy widow and her prominent son and daughter-in-law were found savagely slain in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. Mystified, police first suspected a professional in the bizarre gangland-style killings that shattered the quiet tranquility of two well-to-do southern communities. But soon a suspicion grew that turned their focus to family. The Sharps. The Newsoms. The Lynches. The only link between the three families was a beautiful and aristocratic young mother named Susie Sharp Newsom Lynch. Could this former child "princess" and fraternity sweetheart have committed such barbarous crimes? And what about her gun-loving first cousin and lover, Fritz Klenner, son of a nationally renowned doctor? In this powerful and riveting tale of three families connected by marriage and murder of obsessive love and bitter custody battles, Jerry Bledsoe recounts the shocking events that ultimately took nine lives, building to a truly horrifying climax that will leave you stunned.
This audiobook delves deep into the story of how two disturbed individuals can wreak havoc on the lives of numerous others. The narrator did a fantastic job, and although some of the town's history and its residents were intriguing, it wasn't essential and made it quite challenging to keep up with in audio format. Instead, consider watching the Lifetime Movie adaptation. It may not be the greatest, but it's shorter, more affordable, and slightly less emotionally devastating.
The book 'Bitter Blood' was decent. However, it did have moments where it felt a bit long-winded. The author delved into great detail about every individual involved in the story. It portrayed the tragic tale of a somewhat well-known southern family. The narrator's performance was commendable.
