They have no witnesses. They have no case. With this blunt observation, Mariann Colby - an attractive, church-going Shaker Heights, Ohio, mother and housewife - bet a defense psychiatrist that she would not be convicted of murder. As her trial unfolds in the book, the imprecision of her insanity defense confounds the judges, and psychiatrists disagree about her diagnosis.
