Shattered

The True Story of a Mother's Love, a Husband's Betrayal, and a Cold-Blooded Texas Murder

De: Kathryn Casey

Narrado por: Coleen Marlo

In Creekstone, Texas, a small, quiet suburb of Houston, football was king and David Temple was a prince. A former high school and college gridiron-star-turned-coach, he had a fairy-tale marriage to bright, vivacious Belinda Lucas, a teacher at the local high school who was so warm and popular her colleagues called her "The Sunshine Girl".

The fairy tale ended savagely on January 11, 1999, when Belinda's lifeless body was discovered in a closet. Her skull had been shattered by a shotgun blast at close range. She was eight months pregnant.

There was no damning evidence directly linking the brutal murder to husband David, who stood by emotionless and dry-eyed as police searched the crime scene. But a dogged eight-year investigation would expose a shocking history of cruelty and domination, infidelity and rage - ultimately resulting in an epic courtroom battle for the ages - as the scandalous truth was revealed about love betrayed and innocent lives shattered.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Kathryn Casey is one of the best true crime writers today." (Ann Rule)

Just as good as an Anne Rule book

I read a lot of true crime books and about once a year I read an extraordinary one. Shattered is so well written and the speaker is such a good actress. I never got tired of her voice. Im so sad I finished this book but excited to start reading Kathryn Casey’s other books. May you rest in peace Belinda and Erin.

beautifully written

I thought it was fair minded and wonderfully paced. The narrator's voice was unique and.l at first I didn't like it, but I ended up really really enjoying her performance. is never heard of this story and it kept me guessing. 9/10 would listen to it again.

great writing!

I felt like I was right there there every single process! This was truly great writing!

Fast paced crime story telling at it's best! A

I'm a big Ann Rule fan but at times I tire of climbing the mountain of details she includes in her stories. Kathryn Casey is a breath of fresh air helping the listener reach the pinnacle of truth without the minute details unnecessary to tell the story.

Didn’t want to stop listening. Excellent narration well read other Catherine Casey Books as soon as I can

Well written, and extremely well narrated every minute and I felt as if I ere there.
