Everything She Ever Wanted : A True Story of Obsessive Love, Murder, and Betrayal
Everything She Ever Wanted : A True Story of Obsessive Love, Murder, and Betrayal
by Ann Rule
Pat Taylor and Tom Allanson found in each other the kind of romantic love that others only dream about. She was a delicate and beautiful Southern belle and he was a tall handsome man who could circle her tiny waist with his massive hands. Both came from fine families, bound to the genteel traditions of the Old South. And both shared the same hope for their future: to recreate for themselves a plantation where they would raise and show horses, grow roses and move with grace and style in the highest social circles of Atlanta. Pat often thought of herself as Scarlett O'Hara; and in Tom she'd finally found her Rhett, a man who adores her and vowed to give her everything she ever wanted. They were costumed as Scarlett and Rhett on their wedding day. But scarcely two months later, their perfect world erupted into gunfire, terror, bloodshed, and murder. Their beautiful plantation mysteriously burned to the ground, and Tom Allanson stood accused--and was convicted--of the brutal slaying of his mother and father. This is the bizarre true story of the horrifying tragedy that overtook Pat and Tom Allanson, from its roots in their tangled family histories to its shocking aftermath in the attempted murders of other innocent victims. It is also the suspenseful story of how Atlanta detectives found the single thread that tied together an alarming series of crimes.
