Blood Relations/the Exclusive Inside Story of the Benson Family Murders pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
It is 9:18 on a steamy July morning in
Naples, Florida. An orange fireball en-
gulfs a Chevy Suburban. The explosion
tears through two bodies and hurls
them onto the neatly trimmed grass
of the Benson home. Tobacco heiress
Margaret Benson, 63, and her "son,"
Scott, 21, are killed instantly. Forty-
one-year-old Carol Lynn scrambles
from the inferno moments before a sec-
ond bomb rips through the car. She
looks toward the house just in time to
see her brother Stevcn, 34, standing at
the doorstep, taking measure of the
carnage.
Blood Relations, the electrifying
story of the Bensons, is a family tragedy
with epic aspects. John Greenya is the
writer-journalist who covered the case
for the Washington Post. Granted ex-
clusive access to the family, he gives us
a stunning chronicle of the American
Dream gone awry.
The story takes us from the tidy
farmland of Pennsylvania Amish coun-
try to the sun-drenched elegance of Na-
ples, Florida, and from America at the
turn of the century to the 1980s. Harry
Hitchcoek, the good-hearted, hard-
working founder of the tobacco dy-
nasty, raises two daughters: Margaret
and Janet Lee. Vivacious, brainy Mar-
garet marries the serious Edward Ben-
son and, by dint of her father s gener-
osity and her husband s dedication to
business, becomes heir to a mounting family fortune.
