The sensational story of Margo Bennett, a married FBI agent, who had a love affair with best-selling author Patricia Cornwell, and whose jealous husband, Gene Bennet, a superstar FBI undercover agent, kidnapped and attempted to murder her. Margo was also the inspiration for the heroine in the TV movie Hostage Negotiator (2001). Now, for the first time, Margo Bennett has given investigative journalist Rother complete personal access, sitting for interviews and turning over photographs, documents, records, and private papers. The book covers the dynamics of Margo and Gene Bennett's family, Gene's brilliant FBI undercover career, the lesbian affair with celebrity author Pat Cornwell, Gene's reactive kidnapping and attempt to kill Margo, his insanity defense, the trial that validates Margo's story and shows she was telling the truth all along, and the happy ending to her tale of survival.--From publisher description.
