A tangled web of family dysfunction, fatal attraction, and greed
wends its way from the elegant Southern mansions of old Montgomery,
Alabama, to the New Age salons of Boulder and rural, windswept
Wyoming in Drifting Into Darkness, a true saga of bloodshed and
betrayal. Two grisly murders—a brutal double parricide—a
suicide, and a fourth death under suspicious circumstances.
Drifting Into Darkness is a tangled tale of family dysfunction,
fatal attraction, and greed, a saga that wends its way from the
elegant Southern mansions of Montgomery, Alabama, to the New Age
salons of Boulder, Colorado, to rural, windswept Wyoming. On
Thanksgiving weekend in 2004, philanthropists Charlotte and Brent
Springford Sr. - a wealthy, socially prominent Montgomery couple -
were brutally beaten to death with an ax handle, echoing the
infamous case of Lizzie Borden. Suspicion quickly fell on the
Springfords' gifted but troubled son Brent Jr., who would be tried
and sentenced to life without parole. But a mystery remained: Who
was the mysterious, elusive woman who claimed to be a Native
American shaman that investigators believed manipulated Brent into
this murder? Journalists solving murders is a time-tested trope in
movies, mysteries, and on television. But cops and cop reporters
know that rarely happens in real life. Except when it does. Veteran
crime reporter Mark I. Pinsky, who covered the sensational cases of
serial killer Ted Bundy and Green Beret Dr. Jeffrey MacDonald,
broke the cardinal rule of journalism by involving himself in the
story. Pinsky’s extensive research prompted investigators to
invite him to join their dogged pursuit of justice. His access to
unique and heart-breaking behind-the-scenes material enables him to
take readers with him into the troubled, tortured minds of the
case's main players.
