“I just could not have raised a son who would kill his wife.” – Maureen Temple
Yep, you did. An adulterous one, at that.
Review by Kim Cantrell
David Temple was loved by Katy, Texas football fans, but most suspected a dark side lurked within the bulky young man.
When Belinda Lucas began dating her future husband-to-be, friends noticed a turnabout in the perky, outspoken girl but she appeared happy so no one spoke up.
They should have.
As the years passed following Belinda and David’s wedding, friends and family witnessed cruelty from David toward his wife and many were privy to Belinda’s concerns that her marriage was ending; her suspicions that her husband was having an affair.
And he was.
Described by men as “hot” but actually average in appearance, Heather Scott had no qualms about having an affair with a married man – even one whose wife was 8 months pregnant.
When Belinda was found murdered in the couples’ home, David became an immediate suspect.
But police would make crucial mistakes in the beginning, and it would take the determination of one investigator and a tough-as-nails prosecutor to cross the circled wagons of the Temple family and bring a baby killer to justice.
True crime author Kathryn Casey has given fans another hard-to-put down book, one that’ll make you think twice about the All-American guy next door.
Shattered is a spellbinding account of a woman who loved beyond her questions, a smug jerk who loved only himself, and the murder that would prove blood is always thicker than water.
Add Shattered by Kathryn Casey to your true crime reading list. It is definitely a 2010 release that you do NOT want to miss!
