Description

A suburban housewife’s picture-perfect life is shattered in this riveting true crime book from the author of Evil Next Door.
 
When Nancy Cooper moved from Canada to Cary, North Carolina, with her new husband Brad, their future was bright. Living in one of the most picturesque towns in the United States, the couple mingled with neighbors, attended parties, and raised two daughters.
 
Then, on July 14, 2008, the façade came crashing down when Nancy’s strangled body was found in a storm pond.
 
Nancy’s husband claimed she had gone for a jog and never came back. But as the police investigation deepened, a complex web of affairs and lies involving multiple residents of Cary’s idyllic neighborhoods was uncovered, and Brad was brought to trial for the murder of his wife. At the heart of it stood the Coopers’ soured marriage, Nancy’s threat to leave with the children, and her own cold-blooded murder. It would take a mountain of damning evidence before justice was served.

    I enjoyed reading this book. It was sad, but Nancy’s family has done a lot to help victims of domestic violence.

    I don’t know if it’s the author, whose other books I’ve enjoyed, or the subjects, but it was a slow read for me. Common sense said he killed her but there was a significant lack of physical evidence. Nancy’s family deserves to live a smooth, peaceful life going forward.
