Nanette Johnston’s personal ad made it clear: “I know how to take care of my man if he knows how to take care of me.” Newport Beach millionaire Bill MacLaughlin made the fatal mistake of responding.

Police discovered she’d embezzled a small fortune from MacLaughlin’s business but didn’t have enough evidence to charge her with murder. For years, the crime went unsolved, until new evidence brought the gold digger and her boyfriend back to the courtroom—in a sordid case of lust, betrayal, greed, and murder . . .
