Editorial Review:
A BEAUTIFUL GIRL WITH AMBITIOUS DREAMS -- DID FOLLOWING HER HEART COST HER LIFE? Award-winning journalists from TV's 48 Hours Mystery go inside the case that shocked even jaded New Yorkers: the murder of aspiring dancer Catherine Woods.
She was a gifted midwestern beauty, the daughter of Ohio State University's marching band director: to dance on Broadway. Soon after high school graduation, Catherine left Columbus for New York City, determined to be a star. Three years later, she was dead -- murdered in cold blood in her East Side apartment. The shocking revelations that emerged from the police investigation made tabloid headlines: few knew that the struggling artist paid her bills by dancing in a topless club. But there was another hidden facet to Catherine's life -- a shattering love triangle with two men, one of whom would ultimately be convicted of her brutal stabbing death. It's a chilling account of obsession, violence, and the surprising, minute evidence on which the entire case hinged. For a talented young woman reaching for the top, and the heartbroken family she left behind, it is truly the death of a dream.

I NEVER ORDERED THIS BOOK AND RETURNED IT. I HAVE NO IDEA WHY I RECEIVED THIS BOOK, BECAUSE I ORDERED ANOTHER BOOK AND RECEIVED THAT, AND THIS BOOK CAME WITH IT, AND I WAS GOING TO BE CHARGED FOR IT, SO I RETURNED IT.
THANKS.......

Death of a Dream (48 Hours Mystery)
True crime books are somewhat difficult to find, and we must drive about 40 miles each way to a well stocked book store.
Saw this one mentioned on TV, so bought it.
A very good read.
Rating: - Death of a Dream - A Must Read
I just received this book in the mail and have not been able to put it down since. I was hesitant to order it because some of the crime books I've read are a bit choppy and hard to read. Paul does an excellent job of getting you as close to the scene as you can get and gives you each side of everyone involved.
I didn't get to see the special on TV but am hoping to soon. I am not yet sure if they got the right guy, but hopefully in the end justice will prevail. The press can be quite pathetic ... Read More
Rating: - Great read
This book is really good. If you are a true crime fan you have to read this book.
I have read all of the 48 hour mystery books and this is very well written.
I still can not believe the outconme, but will not say anymore as not to give it away.
Buy this book!!!
Rating: - Justice for Catherine's story
Catherine Woods arrived in New York in 2002 with the same hope of many young dancers to make it big in the "Big Apple". Even though she met with obstacles along the way she was determined and never gave up hope she'd make it. When Catherine was savagely murdered on November 27, 2005 one boyfriend was suspected and another ultimately arrested. The news broke tabloid style and seized the stripper, love triangle theory and wouldn't let go.
This book does Catherine and her family justice by taking ... Read More
