An unexplained disappearance spirals into an unrelenting murder mystery.
In October 2014, local Michigan police chief Laura Frizzo faced a perplexing missing-person case.
It was not like Chris Regan, a devoted father and dependable employee, to take off without explanation.
When Frizzo learned Chris was having an affair with Kelly Cochran, a married co-worker, suspicion fell on Kelly's hulking husband, Jason.
Soon after that the Cochrans abruptly moved to Indiana.
Sixteen months later, Jason Cochran died from a drug overdose.
Friends and family rallied around the grieving Kelly.
But when the coroner ruled Jason's death a homicide, no one reacted more bizarrely than his widow.
Detectives tried to put Kelly's past into focus.
But the horrific truth was hidden under a near-perfect patchwork of lies.
Veteran investigative journalist M.
William Phelps expertly reveals Kelly Cochran's staggering saga of murder, revenge, and payback.
