Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights:#1 On December 9, 2001, Mary Allen took the first step onto the world stage of a long-playing drama when she answered a call from Michael Peterson, who was frantic that his wife, Elizabeth, was not breathing.#2 When the paramedics arrived at the Peterson house, they were shocked by the amount of blood on the stairs. Kathleen’s body was sprawled across the floor of the hallway, her legs spread wide. Her neck was exposed as if on a sacrificial altar.#3 The emergency medical technicians worked the rapid assessment protocol with efficiency and few words exchanged. They determined that Kathleen’s level of consciousness was 3 of 3, the lowest possible score on the Glasgow Coma Scale. She had no pulse, no respiration, and no blood pressure.#4 The officers saw a chair lift attached to the wall of the stairwell. The seat was folded up, but still they wondered if it played a role in the incident. They also made the assumption that Kathleen was disabled.
