New York Times bestselling author Ann Rule writes about missing Marshall woman

Too Late to Say Goodbye by Ann Rule hit the New York Times best selling list at 13 on Wednesday. It's a book that not only tells the story of a prominent Atlanta dentist who confessed to killing his wife and one other woman, but it also connects him to Mary Denise Lands who has been missing from Marshall since March 12, 2004. Mary Lands and her then husband, Gary Lands, were friends with Bart and Jenn Corbin. Rule told the Chronicle Thursday that she mentioned Mary's case in her latest book because she was struck by the fact that four women in Bart's life have either been killed or disappeared though she does not think he was connected to her disappearance. Police still probe Mary's as yet unsolved disappearance. Rule told the Chronicle she is willing to help in any way she can.
