Synopsis
"The most disturbing and moving look at murder in rural America since In Cold Blood." - Gregg Olsen On a December night in 2004, a 911 operator in Nodaway County, Missouri, received a frantic call from a woman who'd found her pregnant 23-year-old daughter in a pool of blood on the living room floor. Most shocking of all, the dying woman's unborn baby had been viciously ripped from her womb. "Get ready for some sleepless nights."--Carlton Stowers Across the border in Melvern, Kansas, Lisa Montgomery showed off a beautiful newborn she proudly claimed as her own. While some shared her excitement, others harbored suspicions. Meanwhile televisions across the nation broadcast the first Amber Alert for an unborn child. "Phelps is a first-rate investigator." - Dr. Michael M. Baden Newly updated with the latest surprising developments, Murder in the Heartland goes behind the scenes of two picture-perfect American towns forever changed by one horrifying act of violence. With exclusive access to key witnesses, family members, and potential victims who narrowly escaped a similar gruesome fate, M. William Phelps tells a classic American tale of unthinkable murder and the quest for justice. Includes 16 Pages Of Shocking Photos As seen on Dateline and Sixty Minutes A Featured Alternate of Doubleday Book Club and the Mystery Guild, On December 16, 2004, eight-months-pregnant Bobbie Jo Stinnett was found bleeding profusely and her unborn baby was gone. Only 150 miles away in Melvern, Kansas, Lisa Montgomery proudly showed off her newborn baby. That was only the beginning of one of the most unthinkable crimes in American history. Newly updated, this edition includes 16 pages of photos., On a December night in 2004, a 911 operator in Nodaway County, Missouri, received a frantic call from a woman who'd found her pregnant 23-year-old daughter in a pool of blood on the living room floor. Most shocking of all, the dying woman's unborn baby had been viciously ripped from her womb. Get ready for some sleepless nights. - Carlton Stowers Across the border in Melvern, Kansas, Lisa Montgomery showed off a beautiful newborn she proudly claimed as her own. While some shared her excitement, others harboured suspicions. Meanwhile televisions across the nation broadcast the first Amber Alert for an unborn child. Phelps is a first-rate investigator. - Dr. Michael M. Baden Newly updated with the latest surprising developments, Murder in the Heartland goes behind the scenes of two picture-perfect American towns forever changed by one horrifying act of violence., On December 16th, 2004, a Nodaway County, Missouri, 9-1-1 operator received a frantic call from the mother of 23-year-old Bobbie Jo Stinnett. The eight-months-pregnant mom-to-be, Bobbie Jo, had been found bleeding profusely and barely breathing. Her unborn baby was gone. Only 150 miles away in Melvern, Kansas, Lisa Montgomery dressed the baby she'd brutally kidnapped in a Winnie-the-Pooh outfit and proudly showed off at church and a local diner. And that was only the beginning of one of the most unthinkable crimes in American history, one that left two Midwestern communities reeling in the crime's aftermath. Like Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, Murder in the Heartland takes an unflinching look at an American tragedy, exploring its terrible trajectory with unparalled courage, insight, and compassion.
