"This story is one that Hollywood couldn't have invented. The family's excesses make the Ewings of Dallas look like pikers. Successfully immerses the reader in the tension and tragedy of the Benson Family Murders." ---Milwaukee Journal
"Andersen offers a fascinatingly detailed portrait of the troubled Benson Family and supplies enough sordid revelations to more than satisfy true-crime fans." BOOKLIST
"Andersen's skill makes this highly-publicized story taut and interesting." Publishers Weekly
The Serpent's Tooth tells the full, tragic story behind the gruesome 1985 murders of tobacco heiress Margaret Benson and her son, as well as the attempted murder of Margaret's daughter -- a gothic tale of failed ambition, dark family secrets, greed, drugs and betrayal played out against the glittering backdrop of Florida's Gold Coast mansions and estates of Pennsylvania’s wealthiest families.”
