The Best Book Nobody is Reading.

It's more than just a true crime, it's a true life experience. Marti Talbott lived a nightmare and now, thirty years later, she is kindly allowing us a glimpse into her very private and frightening experience.

In the book Colorado Cold Case — the Botham/Miracle Murders, Ms Talbott uses a conversation between two fiction characters to carefully examine the brutal murder of two women and two little boys. But what makes this book remarkable is that Ms. Talbott had a secret — a secret involving a cop that convinced her they arrested the wrong man. Who do you call when you can't call a cop? That was the question and unfortunately, the answer she chose turned out to be the wrong one.

Even now, tempers run hot in the small town of Grand Junction, Colorado where the murders took place. It was before DNA and before advanced forensics, nevertheless and the G.J.P.D. really dropped the ball. The last meal the victims ate remained on the deserted dinner table for weeks, no one took fingerprints and family members were allowed to trample the murder site looking for bodies. Cops involved with the victims were also involved in the investigation, the suspect was wired to a polygraph for hours instead of the normal 45 minutes and the judge was forced to recruit people off the street to impanel a jury. Indeed, tempers still run hot and some involved in the case are threatened to sue. "At least if anything happens to me now," Ms. Talbott explains, "they'll know who to go looking for."

So why isn't this book flying off the shelves? It will be, and soon. Colorado Cold Case — the Botham/Miracle Murders is very well written, grips the reader on the first page and won't let go until the very last word. It is available at all the online bookstores such as Amazon, Barns & Noble, BooksAMillion and any traditional bookstore. ISBN: 1413713750
