CHICAGO, IL September 22, 2008 /24-7PressRelease/ — In a book to be released Oct 1, Drew Peterson reveals his timeline of events for October 28, 2007—the day his fourth wife Stacy Peterson disappeared. He disclosed his actions and whereabouts in full, exclusively to investigative writer Derek Armstrong, author of Drew Peterson Exposed (Kunati, Oct 1, 2008). The accounting is just one of five major revelations in the new book, embargoed until October 1, 2008.
"Mr. Peterson gave me many hours of exclusive interviews," author Armstrong reported, "including a timeline of the day Stacy Peterson disappeared—something he's refused to give in full to any other journalist."
In an excerpt from Armstrong's foreword to the book, he wrote:

Drew Peterson, always composed, nodded his head. "I have nothing to hide. I just want people to hear my side for a change."
A few times during the interviews, I would sit up, alarmed and surprised by a revelation...
... I explore all of these elements as they currently stand, and reveal new evidence and information: life and history (the many infidelities and pranks that shaped the personality of our suspect), his motivations (the barely believable events that led up to October 28, 2007 when Stacy Peterson disappeared), the circumstances (a conflicted mess of timelines that I reverse-engineer) and finally, most telling of all, the.... (the remaining excerpt is EMBARGOED INFORMATION).
Drew Peterson Exposed, even as an embargoed title, is a McNaughton Selection for libraries, and is already in its third print run to meet demand for advance orders.
