Summary
A millionaire playboy
Ben Novack, Jr., was born into a hotel empire, Miami's lavish Fontainbleau. But his luxurious, celebrity-studded lifestyle would ironically end in another hotel room - where the police found him bound up in duct tape, beaten to death.
A history of violence
Seven years earlier, police found Novack in an eerily similar situation - when his ex-stripper wife Narcy duct-taped him to a chair for 24 hours and robbed him. Claiming it was a sex game, he never pressed charges and never followed through with a divorce.
A family murder mystery
Prosecutors believed Narcy let the killers into the room and watched them brutalize Novack. They also suspected she was involved in the death of Novack's mother, who took a fatal fall months before. Strangely, it was Narcy's own daughter who implicated her to the police - in this twisted case of passion, perversion, and paradise lost....

over long
really way too much padding. It plods along, the story gets lost in the superfluous detail.

Cruel and unusual behavior
Very well described and often gruesome details of this interesting case of the rich and famous marrying outside of their own class. The greed which that stoked in a remorseless woman is beyond comprehension. Some people will do anything for money. Well read and completely compelling story. Thank you.

Far Too Long
This was such an interesting case, but this account could have been delivered much more succinctly (and powerfully) in half the time! So much inane detail that only served to confuse the story.
The narration was bland and extremely lacklustre… I almost gave up listening many times. I’m actually surprised that I did listen to the end. I zoned out through much of it so that’s probably why.

Very difficult to listen to
The narrator's intonation makes what could be entertaining virtually unlistenable. I really tried but gave up.
