In the early hours on a rainy autumn night in 1955, on a lavish country estate in Oyster Bay Cove, esteemed New York socialite Ann Woodward fired both barrels of her custom-made shotgun into the head of her husband, multimillionaire William J. "Billy" Woodward Jr., killing him. She mistook him for a notorious prowler who preyed on the privileged class. At least that was what the official reports stated. The police focused on catching the prowler, as they cast an impenetrable dragnet around the "Playhouse" for the elusive intruder. However, as with many other aspects of Billy and Ann's social circle, things were not always as they appeared. Local author and retired detective Jerry Aylward uncovers the uncomfortable truths behind one of the Gold Coast's most notorious murders.


Jerry Aylward is a retired detective with thirty-two years of service with the Nassau County Police Department. He served an additional ten years in federal law enforcement with the U.S. Department of Homeland Security as a criminal investigator in the Office of the Chief Security Officer (OCSO) at a highly classified government research facility. Jerry has a bachelor's degree in behavioral science from New York Institute of Technology (NYIT) and is a New York State-licensed private investigator. Jerry is also the author of three additional books: The Nassau County Police Department, Francis "Two Gun" Crowley's Killings in New York City & Long Island and The Scarlet Oak.
