Although HarperCollins, St. Martin's and Time Warner Book Group turned down publishing Dotson's book, the author self published her true story in order to share it with the public.

Identity theft is one of the fastest-growing and least understood crimes in America. Those who have never been victimized tend to brush it off. If it happens, they figure law enforcement, attorneys and the judicial system will protect the victim and justice will be served on the perpetrator. But it's not that simple.

Through no fault of his own, Wesley Newman�s identity was stolen by his second wife Betty. As a result, his wife attempted to claim his entire estate upon his death, and disinherit his six children by forging a Last Will and Testament and beneficiary change forms to his insurance policies, pension plan and bank accounts.

Since Mr. Newman was deceased, his wife presumed her caper was a success. But this was not the case. After discovering the forged will at the courthouse, Mr. Newman�s six children sought justice on his behalf by filing a will contest. Although they thought justice would be swift, they were wrong. This is just the beginning of a long nightmare for his adult children.

Mr. Newman�s six children find themselves with a very costly dilemma. In order to recover their inheritance, they must file felony charges on Mrs. Newman and prosecute their stepmother at their own expense. The legal expenses could easily run into the millions of dollars.

Betty closed all bank accounts and emptied safe deposit boxes within days of her husband�s death. There was obviously no such thing as assets being frozen in Texas. The bank did nothing to help them recover the frozen assets.

�My stepmother had years to spin her web and plan her crimes. She was several steps ahead of us.�

Mr. Newman�s daughter�s lives are turned upside down. They are put to the test, and the clock was ticking. The courtroom showdown would soon begin.

Dotson has been seen on The NBC Today Show and PBS. She's currently speaking on radio station Talk Shows as an Identity Theft Expert. Detectives, profilers, FBI and handwriting experts are using her book as a textbook case study on identity theft and the criminal mind of her stepmother, the Black Widow serial killer.

�NO GREATER DECEPTION, A True Texas Story� by Sydney Newman Dotson is available on Amazon and Barnes & Noble websites today.
