Nancy Cooper is missing… Her husband said she went for a jog and never came home. Hundreds search for the vivacious mother of two young girls in the upscale North Carolina neighborhood.

Days later, Nancy’s body is discovered facedown in a ditch a few miles from her home. It appears she’d been snatched off a jogging trail and strangled. Yet, focus immediately falls on Nancy’s smart, athletic and handsome husband, Brad, because the couple had been embroiled in a violently contentious divorce. Brad Cooper steadfastly maintains his innocence.

Nancy’s loved ones know of Brad’s lies and his cheating. They know he wielded an unhealthy control over his wife. They feared, with good reason, that the strong-willed Nancy was ultimately no match for her husband’s dark side.

As the story unfolds in this peaceful suburb, secrets are revealed, families are torn apart, and a trail of damning evidence paves the path to final justice.
