Love Lies: A True Story of Marriage and Murder in the Suburbs
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 US, the couple mingled with neighbors, attended parties, and raised two daughters.
Then, on July 14th, 2008, the façade came crashing down when Nancy’s strangled body was found in a storm pond.
Nancy’s husband claimed that she had gone for a jog and never come back. But as the police investigation deepened, and as Brad was brought to trial for murdering his wife, a complex web of affairs and lies was uncovered involving multiple residents of Cary’s idyllic neighborhoods. 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.
Too much of a good story I dont usually review books though I know I probably should since I rely on the reviews myself!This is a decent story but it is full of redundant information. I was able to skip numerous pages because there is only so many ways you can state then information. If written differently it may have made an interesting read but probably not book length. Still, it was a good story if you dont mind skipping pages to get to new information
Sad, tragic true crimeI read a lot of true crime books and many of them really fascinate me as well as make me feel such sympathy for the family of the victim. This book truly touched my heart. The author, who is new to me, truly details the family of the victim, including her two daughters, her twin sister, parents, brother and little sister and the emotional ups and downs they went through. This book truly captured the emotional impact on a victim's family and is exceptional in that aspect.
Sometimes you read a book and you think, "Gee, this could've been a longer article." This was one of those times. That said, I read this book in 2 days. While I was at times irritated by the repetition, at others I appreciated it because there were a lot of facts to keep up with in this case.I'm glad i wasn't on that jury because I think he did it. In fact, he did confess to 2nd Degree murder, but the evidence was hard to find because floors had been washed, laundry done, garage emptied out,
Save your money!I am a true crime kinky and I am usually inclined to blame the husband. That being said, I found this author to be extremely prejudiced. I could not recommend this book to anyone.
So sadPrayers for Nancy Coopers Family. Nancy did not deserve to die the way that she did and be discarded like a piece of trash she was a human being! I feel like they should have not allowed Brad to get a retrial at all he was convicted and was 100 percent guilty of his actions and still should have given his life in prison with no parole! While he may have felt like he got away with it on this earth there is a higher power that he has to answer to and that is God!

Ist book Ive read by this author and Im not impressed. Poorly written, boring & from what Ive read on-line not well researched at all. I also found it very biased, almost the entire book is based on interviews with friends of the victim; only a couple of token interviews with anyone sympathetic to the accused. Why, was this too difficult to arrange, or simply not worth the effort? Brad was sentenced to life in prison based on motive (she was leaving him) and all circumstantial evidence, theyToo much of a good story I dont usually review books though I know I probably should since I rely on the reviews myself!This is a decent story but it is full of redundant information.
