Ulterior Motives: The Killing and Dark Legacy of Tycoon Henry Kyle

Who shot Henry Kyle is a real life version of "Who Shot JR?". Kyle was a handsome, flamboyant, Texas tycoon and wannabe big-time Hollywood producer found dead in a pool of blood in his Beverly Hills mansion. Initially suspecting a burglar, police soon added to their suspect list several people with reasons to want Kyle dead. Among them: the "mystery wife" who suddenly appeared at the funeral; the beautiful, illegitimate daughter who was starved for affection but addicted to cocaine; a troubled son about to be disinherited; and a long list of girl friends, ex-wives, and unsavory acquaintances. Author Suzanne Finstad has untangled this web of money, murder, and betrayal with all the glamour & intrigue of a real-life "Dallas."

This book grabs you from the beginning and never lets you go! More twists and turns than a fiction writer could imagine. It is Finstad at her best!

This book is about the killing of Texas Tycoon Henry Kyle, and how they believed and convicted his son Ricky. Anyway, this book looks deep into how a rich man can have many problems, family separations, and intrigues. The convicted son, who attended the same school as I did is portrayed as a mean kid trying to get his dad will, the investigation made by the author, goes beyond police records and I consider it a great compilation of stories from the people that knew the late Henry Kyle, this book goes on shmooth, and has the reader on the edge.
