Oh, but the cherry on this steaming pile of shit is how the author victim blamed his work partner when she was killed. EDIT TO ADD: I have since been brought to the attention of the author's behavior regarding reviews of her books, which was not only appallingly unprofessional but also resulting in her blogging about how she was now going to use the people she engaged in arguments with in her next book, suggesting it would of course be a negative portrayal.
