Better Off Dead: A Sordid True Story of Sex, Sin, and Murder

By: Michael Fleeman

Narrated by: Michael Kinzie

A frustrated, unhappy wife. Her much younger, attentive lover. A husband who degrades and ignores her. The stage is set for a love-triangle murder that shatters family illusions and lays bare a quiet family community's seedy secret world of sex, sin, and swinging.

Better Off Dead, the latest true crime book from New York Times best-selling author Michael Fleeman, strips away the pleasant veneer of the Silver Lakes neighborhood in California's high desert to tell a shocking story about a headline-grabbing crime.

A gripping true crime story

True crime writer Michael Fleeman presents the love triangle involving a California couple, involving the wife's younger lover, Jonathan Hearn. Sabrina Limon met her future lover while working at Costco, and it escalated into a torrid lover affair. The author shares the transcripts of many secret conversations between the lovers using a wiretapped burner phone. The ultimate question is, did the couple plot to kill Robert Limon, a hard working father of two, so they could be together? In the end, Limon and Hearn would testify against each other. "Better Off Dead" exposes the truth behind this shocking homicide, and takes you inside the court room for the drama surrounding this scandalous crime.

Written in a very straightforward reporting style! Easy to follow!

Appreciated the performance. Story was interesting to me as I have family who work for BNSF in a different state!

Narrator never saw the book before...

I don't think this narrator read this book before he began recording. I'll find the verdict on-line. I lasted QUITE a while. The pronunciation of Gullian-Barre as "Gee-lon Berry" syndrome was the end of me.

Narration is sub par

I lost count of mispronunciation of common words and poor edits on retakes. Even worse, his impersonation of women is so bad, it’s insulting lol

Deceived

Another wife gone wild. I think she just wanted to have fun. The husband got in the way.
