On a peaceful Saturday morning at a local BJ’s, the quiet was shattered by the sound of a single gunshot.  44-year-old Jeff Zack had pulled his SUV up to a gas pump when he was shot dead at point blank range by an unknown assailant.

Jeff Zack, police would learn, had any number of people who would like to see him dead. The police worked this case tirelessly, eventually unraveling a web of deceit in the apparently perfect life of a prominent businessman’s wife. For nearly a decade, Cynthia George had been having an affair with Jeff Zack behind her wealthy husband’s back. But he wasn’t her only extramarital affair.

Join us at the quiet end for Fatal Beauty: The Story of Cynthia George.  As a former beauty queen and millionaire who lived in a mansion with her husband and seven children, Cynthia George seemed an unlikely murder suspect.  But Cynthia was accustomed to living a double life and she had perfected the skill using her beauty to get what she wanted.
