Content descriptions
| General Note: | "A terrifying true story of secrets, betrayal, deception, and murder" -- Cover. |
| Summary, etc.: | Takes readers deep into the murder of Mary Yoder, a popular wife, mother, and healer in Upstate New York -- telling a gripping tale of a family drama, a determined investigation, and a killer with the face of an angel. The investigative journalist documents the 2015 poisoning murder of chiropractic therapist Mary Yoder and the community-dividing investigation that implicated members of the victim's own family. Upstate New York, July 2015. Mary Yoder returned home from the chiropractic center that she operated with her husband, Bill, complaining that she felt unwell. Doctors in the ER were baffled by her rapidly progressing illness. In the weeks that followed Mary's death, the medical examiner announced Mary had been deliberately poisoned with colchicine. Her son, Adam, was a suspect, but so was Kaitlyn Conley, Adam's ex-girlfriend. Conley worked at the Yoders' clinic, and had a history of rage-fueled behavior against anyone who rejected her. Phelps details the accusations, and a scheme that would tear a family in two, divide a community, and result in high-profile trials. -- adapted from jacket. |
