About this ebook

The New York Times bestselling author of Bad Girls tells the true-crime tale of a Connecticut woman who became a real-life Fatal Attraction.

Sheila Davalloo was young, attractive, and successful. When she started a new job at a cutting-edge research lab in Stamford, Connecticut, she met the man of her dreams. Nelson Sessler had no idea how violently Sheila would react when he began seeing a co-worker, Anna Lisa Raymundo. Sheila eliminated her rival in a bloody knife attack—and then turned her rage on another victim she saw as an obstacle to her passions. M. Williams Phelps recounts the riveting story of a white-collar love triangle gone horribly wrong . . . and the terrifying infatuation that drove one woman to kill.

Praise for Obsessed

“True-crime junkies will be sated by the latest thriller from Phelps, which focuses on a fatal love triangle that definitely proved to be stranger than fiction. The police work undertaken to solve the case is recounted with the right amount of detail, and readers will be rewarded with shocking television-worthy twists in a story with inherent drama.” —Publishers Weekly

Includes sixteen pages of dramatic photos

Once again this author writes in a way that place him among the top true crime writers in the English speaking world. A terribly sad story of one person's narcissisim and how that led her to commit murder one person and attempt to murder of another. Although there was always little doubt she would be convicted, Phelps has been able to write about these crimes in a way that holds the reader's attention. If you enjoy reading true crime then you should enjoy this book.

Phelps is the master we true crime writing. I love the follow up at the end and how he writes all together. Not one book I've read of his has been hard to read. I do get a little tired of reading the same stories from the New England states though. Just wish he would write more southern (Louisiana) true crime stories. We seem to have serial killers and real psychos in this state.
