Summary
"The victim was Gary Triano, a Tucson real estate developer with influential friends-and enemies. After finishing a round of golf at a country club, he went to the parking lot and found a gift in his car: a crudely made pipe bomb that blew him to pieces. The bomb-maker was Ron Young, a Colorado "bad guy" wanted on weapons and fraud charges. The prosecution claimed that the woman he was dating at the time promised to pay him four hundred thousand dollars to murder her ex-husband. Her name was Pamela Phillips, an Aspen socialite, divorcée, and mother of Triano's two children. She received two million dollars upon his death but evaded suspicion for more than a decade. Finally, halfway across the globe in Austria, the blond bombshell was detained and sent home-igniting one of the most explosive cases in Arizona history."--P. 4 of cover
