On March 16, 1992, Elizabeth DeCaro, a 28 year-old mother of four, was found dead in her own home, murdered execution-style with two bullets to the head. Her husband, Rick, was immediately a suspect, having previously struck her "accidentally" with the family van after taking out a $100,000 life insurance policy on her. A Killer Among Us presents the true shocking story of Elizabeth's family and their search for justice against the man who continued to play father to the children whose mother he had killed.
This real-life case has fascinating legal elements - three trials, a death penalty conviction, and a dramatic reversal in federal court - and has received extensive local and national coverage.
Charles Bosworth Jr. is the author of the New York Times best sellers Previous Victims and Silent Witness.

First, I believe the book was very well written and despite covering three trials (which many tend to find boring), the book moved along at a good pace and never lost my attention. Second, I think the author did an excellent job of creating emotional attachments for the reader to every character in the story, whether it be one of the seedy characters or one of the sympathetic. Third, I find it amazing that so many people find it hard to believe that a horrible thing can happen to a wonderful family. Although the author does recount over and over how close the victim's family was, there is nothing wrong with a family being that close. It was not perfect -- Elizabeth delivered a child at 16 and never graduated from high school. It was not easy -- Mary raised 7 kids in a 1400 square foot house, forming strong emotional bonds with 4 children she had to continuously fight to keep. The author does not paint this family as perfect, he merely tells the story of a family whose love and support for one another overcome any obstacle, no matter how large. This book made me cry many times, and it was fascinating to read about the investigation and the trial, especially the families' reactions to peculiarities in the legal system that seem so unfair. In all, this is an excellent, well written book. I have read nearly 200 true crime books, and I rate this one in the top 10 percent both for the writer's talent and the emotional strength of the story. I recommend this book to any true crime reader.

By Diana Martinez (franciscom@worldnet.att.net) I read this book with an open mind only to find myself becoming part of the Isengham family's supporters. The author takes in the reader with all the descriptions necessary to envelop you in this sad tale of greed, adultery and ultimately murder. Your heartstrings are pulled in the appropriate directions as you become a part of the Isengham family and a witness to their loyalty as well as the loyalty of the DeCaro family in supporting their accused son. I found this book riveting and found it hard to put down. You know a book captures your spirit when you even dream about what you have been reading. The author has captured the turmoil in the two families but more so in the Isengham family as they all lose an irreplaceable piece of their lives. This is excellent reading for a rainy day.
27 of 29 people found the following review helpful. A Great Case of Deja Vu By A Customer A Killer Among Us by Charles Bosworth, Jr., of the true-crime genre, was to me a riveting tale, not just because of its intrinsic literary worth, but because it took place in St. Ann, St. Charles, and the general St. Louis area, all of which I'm so familiar with, having lived for many years in St. Ann itself about a mile of the childhood home of the victim. I know this story from having seen it on TV, so it had no surprises; indeed, the book isn't written as a suspense tale which weaves itself to a surprise ending, the denouement being apparent from the start. Only the ultimate fate of the trigger-man was pending at the time of the book's publication. Despite the inclusion of virtual transcripts of three different trials, inclusions which often weary the reader and detract from the spontaneity of the tale, such distraction was not the case here, possibly because the subject was sensitively handled by the perspicacious author. A great read! I highly recommend it for all true-crime afficionados.
