Shouldn't have wasted my time ( ) This was a quick read, but when we got to the "33 Reasons," it wasn't "evidence." It was more along the lines of "he was acting weird." The title of the book is "33 Reasons My Brother Scott Peterson is Guilty." It should be "33 Reasons I Should Have Figured Out My Brother Scott Peterson is Guilty a Lot Sooner Than I Did." I wondered when I picked this up if it was just another piling on book to collect on the story. As I read, I thought not. When it ended, I wasn't sure. I mostly like the way it's written, though. Who was the ghost writer? An alternate title for BLOOD BROTHER could be NARCISSISM 101, describing Scott Peterson -the wife and baby killer of the 90's. This book is written by his half- sister Anne, ( their shared mother had 4 kids and gave away 2 ) so this is the story from a new perspective. Honest, open, hopeful and sad this was an interesting read even tho her writing skills are not all that.... I read this book 8 years ago but thankfully I did write a little journal so here it is. (I knew nothing about this case or the players in it so to say) On Thursday, December 21, 2006 I wrote: 7 out of 10 Received this book from Ladiibbug as a Rabck. This was my first book on the Scott Peterson case and I want to read more about this. I do feel this author really wanted to be involved in the case a lot. First she tried to work with the prosecution and later with the defense. Nobody needed her. I just did not feel she was really honest. Now she claims Lacy is her best friend even though they met only 4 times??? It was an easy read I give her that, and because this was my first book on this case, I did enjoy it, but I am sure the other books will give me much more information. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

What happens if, after being given up for adoption in childhood, you reestablish contact with your biological family only to discover that your newfound brother is a killer? Anne Bird, the sister of Scott Peterson, knows firsthand. Soon after her birth in 1965, Anne was given up for adoption by her mother, Jackie Latham. Welcomed into the well-adjusted Grady family, she lived a happy life. Then, in the late 1990s, she came back into contact with her mother, now Jackie Peterson, and her family including Jackie's son Scott Peterson and his wife, Laci. Anne was welcomed into the family, and over the next several years she grew close to Scott and especially Laci. Together they shared holidays, family reunions, and even a trip to Disneyland. Anne and Laci became pregnant at roughly the same time, and the two became confidantes. Then, on Christmas Eve 2002, Laci Peterson went missing and the happy façade of the Peterson family slowly began to crumble. Anne rushed to the family's aid, helping in the search for Laci, even allowing Scott to stay in her home while police tried to find his wife. Yet Scott's behavior grew increasingly bizarre during the search, and Anne grew suspicious that her brother knew more than he was telling. Finally she began keeping a list of his disturbing behavior. And by the time Laci's body and that of her unborn son, Conner were found, Anne was becoming convinced: Her brother Scott Peterson had murdered his wife and unborn child in cold blood. Filled with news-making revelations and intimate glimpses of Scott and Laci, the Peterson family, and the investigation that followed the murder, Blood Brother is a provocative account of how long-dormant family ties dragged one woman into one of the most notorious crimes of our time.
