<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Investigative reporter, and author of <i>Nobody's Women, </i> Steve Miller makes a thoroughly researched inquiry into a murder that rocked the privileged world of Grosse Pointe, Michigan.</b> <p/> Bob Bashara: husband, father, Rotary Club president and community leader.<br> Bob Bashara: slumlord, philanderer and BDSM enthusiast.<br> Did he also hire a hit on his wife? <p/> Jane Bashara lived in Grosse Pointe Park, one of Metro Detroit's wealthiest communities, when she was strangled to death in her own garage by local handyman Joe Gentz. When Joe turned himself in, he told the cops everything-- including how he was hired for a hit by Jane's husband. His payment: $2,000 and a used Cadillac. <p/> Born into one of Michigan's elite families, Bob was sweeping out the back alley of a property he owned when his wife was being killed. He made sure the bartenders at the Hard Luck Lounge saw him there at the time of her murder. He'd often brought girlfriends by the same bar, and for the last year had been seen with one Rachel Gillett--riding around town in her convertible, even showing up at BDSM events in the suburbs of Detroit. <p/> When Joe Gentz confessed, his 67 IQ and barfly reputation made him less than credible. Bob successfully denied any part in his wife's murder. But he couldn't deny his attempt to have Joe killed in prison. <p/> Includes photos.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Wanted: more from this author."--<i>True Crime Book Reviews</i> <p/>Praise for Steve Miller <p/>"Miller took the time to tell each and every victim's story, from how they began their lives with the same hope we all have to their drug addiction downfalls.
