From the Author:
FOREVER broke new ground
FOREVER AND FIVE DAYS broke new ground in the true-crime genre. It was the first book not only about a female serial killer, but a pair of them. At the time of its publication in 1992, it was the first book to break the traditional boundaries of true crime. Back then, true crime stories were preoccupied with murder among wealthy or middle class Americans. Instead, FOREVER delved into an underworld of of subordinary people doing extraordinary acts. Many publishing houses refused to buy the book because of its lesbian villains. But when this book was published, noted true crime master Jack Olsen called Cauffiel "the future of true crime." Vincent Bugliosi, the prosecutor of Charles Manson and author of HELTER SKELTER, called FOREVER "the terrifying story of obsession and the poewr of the diabolical mind. A terrific read!"
