A Bride of Conviction

The longer I spoke with her, the more I began to believe that Janet Spears--a woman who married a murderer she had helped convict--possessed something worth having. She seemed as near peace with herself as anyone I'd ever met.

Now, I'm not asking you to believe that assertion as you settle down for your Thanksgiving weekend. You're certainly free to think of Janet Spears as someone so bizarre that she has nothing to say that you need to hear.

After all, you're not looking for love in the face of fear and death. Are you?
