Product Information
On the morning of May 4, 2003, a well-loved, hard-working freshman student named Katie Autry was found dead in her dormitory room at Western Kentucky University in Bowling Green. She had been raped, stabbed, drenched in hairspray, and set on fire. The story of Katie's horrific murder made local headlines-and there was a huge public outcry to bring her killer to justice...Stephen Soules, an unemployed high school dropout, had given Katie a ride home from a party on the night of her murder. With him was Lucas Goodrum, a twenty-one-year-old, sometime drug dealer with a known history of domestic abuse. Soules claimed that Goodrum forced him to participate in the crime, and received a life sentence in a plea deal. But what "really" happened in Katie's dorm room that night? And which of the two accused is the real killer? "Cruel Heart" is the true story of a crime that sent shockwaves through a small Southern town-and the mysteries that still remain...

Reviews
A keenly observed, nearly meditative examination of the crime and its rippling aftereffects, the book does what the best true-crime literature almost always does--it shines a light on the spookily arbitrary and always-inexplicable nature of violence. It's the kind of book that will have you looking over your shoulder on a dark walk home., Characters and events alike in Van Meter's harrowing and mesmerizing account of a Kentucky coed's murder are etched with photographic clarity as the narrative moves toward its end with a sort of doomed inevitability., Praise for CRUEL HEART"Characters and events alike in Van Meter's harrowing and mesmerizing account of a Kentucky coed's murder are etched with photographic clarity as the narrative moves toward its end with a sort of doomed inevitability."

It's the kind of book that will have you looking over your shoulder on a dark walk home." The Fader "Van Meter's narrative style reads like a classic novel. There was so much rich material, he was careful to avoid any embellishments." Metro"Van Meter recounts the drama and intensity of the ensuing trials. Reminiscent of Truman Capote, this young journalist returns to the south of his roots to write about this violent crime, and in doing so, paints a vivid portrait of the town, the characters who fill it and the simmering class conflicts that polarized the town." WisconsinStateJournal"William Van Meter'sCruel Heartis not just a story of 'murder' but one of race, class, gender, and region. There are many layers of moral universality in this small-town murder case that far outreach the suburbs of southern Kentucky in their magnitude. . . .
