Phoenix Books Announces New True Crime/Mystery Title, Fatal Vows: The Tragic Wives of Sergeant Drew Peterson, Detailing the as yet Unsolved Mystery That Continues to Intrigue the Nation
BEVERLY HILLS, Calif., July 16 PRNewswire — Phoenix Books is proud to announce the September release of the first-ever book to detail the disturbing Drew Peterson case. Fatal Vows: The Tragic Wives of Sergeant Drew Peterson is the true story of the Bolingbrook, Illinois, Police Sergeant, whose third wife was found dead in a dry bathtub, and whose fourth wife — thirty years his junior — vanished seemingly into thin air in the fall of 2007.
Four years before young wife and mother Stacy disappeared, Peterson's third wife, Kathleen Savio, was found dead in her home from what authorities claimed was an "accidental drowning." Only after Stacy's disappearance did authorities exhume Kathleen's body to perform a second autopsy. The results were shocking: Kathleen Savio's death was now ruled a homicide, making Drew Peterson the former husband of two women lost to mysterious circumstances.
At hearing the "news" of Stacy's disappearance, Peterson — who retired after speculation regarding his less-than-lawful past in the Bolingbrook Police Department and as part of an undercover narcotics squad — should have been scared. At the very least, he should have been grieving. Instead, he was appearing on cable-television news shows on a weekly basis, while taunting the media. Images of Drew on the Today show, citing Stacy's menstrual cycle as the cause for their marital discord, or of Drew walking in full-view of the media wearing an American flag bandanna and NYPD hat painted the picture of anything but a woeful husband. In spring of 2008, Peterson appeared to have already moved on to a new love interest — this latest two years younger than Stacy is, or would have been. From object of pity to person of interest, there can be no doubt: Drew Peterson has captivated the nation.
Drawing upon exclusive interviews with the families of both Stacy Peterson and Kathleen Savio, Joseph Hosey investigates the real Drew Peterson and the tragic story of his wives' questionable ends. Finally, Hosey poses the question all of America is asking: WHERE IS STACY?
Joseph Hosey has been a reporter for the Chicago area's Herald News since 1999 and has been on the cusp of every major development in the Drew Peterson case. He is the only member of the media to cover Kathleen Savio's inquest, having broken the stories of her death and, later, the disappearance of Stacy Peterson.
