Synopsis

A drug-fueled lesbian love triangle leads to murder in this New York Times bestselling true crime, updated with shocking revelations and a second trial!

In 1995, Austin, Texas was rocked by the brutal murder of Regina Hartwell. Even though Regina's body was burned beyond recognition, police had two suspects within days. One was the beautiful ex-cheerleader who was the object of Regina's desire. The other was a man who would take the fall for murder . . .

In this new edition of her bestselling book Wasted, true crime master Suzy Spencer chronicles a fatal love triangle as three lives are driven out of control by sexual desire, drugs, and shocking childhood demons.

Four years after Regina Hartwell's murder, a new charge was brought against one of her suspected killers. Now, Suzy Spencer adds a new chapter to Wasted—detailing a killer gone wild, a nerve-wracking legal standoff, the shocking twists that would take place in a second, explosive trial . . .
