Blood in the Snow

The True Story of a Stay-at-Home Dad, His High-Powered Wife, and the Jealousy That Drove Him to Murder

De: Tom Henderson

Narrado por: Paul Michael Garcia

In Washington Township, Michigan, on Valentine's Day, 2007, Stephen Grant filed a missing persons report on his beloved wife, Tara. The stay-at-home father of two was beside himself with despair. Why would Tara abandon him and their family? Was she involved with another man?

Stephen's frantic, emotional search for Tara made national headlines, and the case was featured on Dateline among other television shows and news outlets. But key elements in Stephen's story still weren't adding up: Why did he wait five days to go to police? What was the nature of his relationship with his children's beautiful, 19-year-old babysitter? Why did Stephen have cuts on his hands, and random bruises? Then, the police made a gruesome discovery.

Parts of Tara Grant's body started turning up around the woods near their home. The truth was finally coming to light...and, after a two-day manhunt, Stephen admitted to having killed Tara―first strangling her, then cutting her body into 14 pieces before burying them. This is the shocking true story about a bitter, cheating husband whose crimes were revealed by the Blood in the Snow.

Mortifying!

I couldn't believe this story was true until I looked online and found out it truly was. I couldn't put this book down at all.

All around amazing

I really got a sense of who Stephen was as a person by the way it was written and performed. I really felt that I knew how he thought, it was amazing. The performance was great, the book was superbly written, and it is one crazy story.

new to me

though some bits near the end seemed like filler, I enjoyed it. I had been to all the places they mentioned. Never paid attention to the story s it was happening. Good listen

great true crime story

this one has it all folks, give it a listen. the crime, cover up, and aftermath...simply amazing

Zzzzzz

Good book. Lots of details, which is good for true crime. But this book could have been monumentally shorter. Too much extraneous detail, repetitive detail, even so far as word for word paragraphs in more than one place. I don’t need to know the favorite breakfast of the lead detective or his wife’s bra size. Just way overboard on the back stories of people that weren’t even central to the story and a lot of skipping around in time and place and perspective. But I like true crime, so I hung in there til the end.
