The true crime story of a Boston man who murdered his pregnant wife and pinned the crime on a black man—the case behind HBO's Murder in Boston.

On October 23, 1989, affluent businessman Charles Stuart made a frantic 911 call from his car to report that he and his seven-months-pregnant wife, Carol, a lawyer, had been robbed and shot by a black male in the Mission Hill neighborhood of Boston. By the time police arrived, Carol was dead, and the baby was soon lost as well. The attack incited a furor during a time of heightened racial tension in the community.

Even more appalling, while the injuries were real, Stuart's story was a hoax: He was the true killer. But the tragedy would continue with the arrest of Willie Bennett, a young man Stuart identified in a line-up. Stuart's deception would only be exposed after a shocking revelation from his brother and, finally, his suicide, when he jumped into the freezing waters of the Mystic River.

As the story unraveled, police would put together the disturbing pieces of a puzzle that included Stuart's distress over his wife's pregnancy, his romantic interest in a coworker, and life insurance fraud. In an account that "builds and grips like a novel" (Kirkus Reviews), New York Times journalist Joe Sharkey delivers "a picture of a man consumed by naked ambition, unwilling to let anyone or anything get in his way" (Library Journal).

Revised and updated, this ebook also includes photos and a new epilogue by the author.
