IN THE STILL OF THE NIGHT

In this chilling new true crime book, #1 New York Times bestselling author Ann Rule delves into the case of Ronda Reynolds, a former female state policewoman whose death, ruled a suicide 10 years ago, is investigated as a murder, as the lies and contradictions of her husband, an elder at her church, begin to unravel.

On December 15, 1998, Ronda Reynolds, 33, was living with her husband of 11 months in the small town of Toledo, Washington but only for the moment; she planned to leave him that night and fly to Spokane, Washington where her mother, brother and grandmother eagerly awaited her visit for the Christmas holidays. Ronda's marriage had disintegrated into a chaos of infidelity, lies, and arguments over money. The man she married the previous January, believing that her life was finally on a stable path wasn't at all who she expected him to be . . .

A decade later, the only thing we can be sure of is that Ronda Reynolds died violently.

Over the years, her death has been officially deemed suicide. . .and then unknown. . .and then suicide . . .and then, once again unknown.

Ann Rule is regarded by many as the foremost true crime writer in America and the author responsible for the genre as it exists today. She came into her career with a solid background in law enforcement and the criminal justice system.
