Softcover / Paperback. Etat : Fine. First edition. Softcover. His 1966 hit single "The Cheaters" was more than a song - it was his life - and, ultimately, his death. Who were "The Cheaters"? Why was one victim bludgeoned to death, the other shot in the back and dumped in a cistern? This riveting true-crime account focuses on the motivating factors of lust, greed, and cheating, which triggered two grisly murders in 1983: Walter Scott, the singer of the national hit song "The Cheaters" and Sharon Williams, the spouse of Scott's wife's lover. Real-life characters unfold through strong psychological profiles. The pages recreate Scott's struggle to attain stardom, sexual passion, events leading to the murders, a frustrating police investigation, the exhumation of Sharon Williams' corpse, and the gruesome discovery of Scott's body in a cistern. A faltering justice system and years of legal manoeuvrings, countered by the persistent efforts of Scott's elderly parents to seek retribution, grip the reader to the last page. Illus. + Epilogue. 254pp. trade size softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Nr. F. with no creasing to covers.

The author was an award-winning writer, journalist, and academic. Robert "Bob" Kuban (born August 19, 1940) is an American musician and bandleader. Robert "Bob" Kuban (born August 19, 1940) is an American musician and bandleader. Kuban was born in St. Louis, Missouri and was graduated from the St. Louis Institute of Music. In 1963, he formed the group Bob Kuban and The In-Men. Kuban was both its drummer and the bandleader. The group was an eight-piece band with horns, somewhat of a throwback for the time, considering that the British Invasion, mounted primarily by guitar-based bands that had initially formed in the UK, was taking place during that period. Kuban was heavily influenced by Ike & Tina Turner, whom he would watch perform at Club Imperial in St. Louis before his band became regulars. He said, "I just loved the band so much. I mimicked a lot of the stuff that they did. We had the horn section in my band. When Ike and Tina Turner left, we were able to play there. We were there on Tuesday nights." Bob is best known for his 1966 No. 12 pop hit, "The Cheater". For this hit single Kuban is honored in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame's permanent exhibit on one-hit wonders. After "The Cheater," Kuban never again scored high on the pop charts, although he did have two other top 100 hits: "The Teaser" peaked at #70; and a remake of the Lennon-McCartney song "Drive My Car" went to No. 93. Kuban continues to be a fixture on the St. Louis music scene, and still tours and performs at private parties. Bob Kuban and The In-Men performed for the opening ceremonies of Busch Memorial Stadium in St. Louis on May 10, 1966; and The Bob Kuban Brass performed before the last regular-season baseball game there on October 2, 2005. In the sixties a spin-off of the group was a band called The Guise, led by In-Men organist and songwriter Greg Hoeltzel. The Guise performed in the 1969 St. Louis premiere of a composition by classical composer Arthur Custer and jazz composer Julius Hemphill titled "Songs of Freedom, Love, and War."
