About this listen
Some Cases Are Personal. This One’s Deadly.
Eight years ago, Luther McNeer was convicted of his wife’s brutal murder. The evidence was damning: his clothes were soaked in her blood, no signs of forced entry, and a sketchy alibi about sleeping through the entire ordeal. But his brother Vinny has never stopped believing in Luther’s innocence.
Private investigators Mallory Carver and Tucker Randall have perfected their professional partnership, though neither will admit that their crackling chemistry extends far beyond case files and stake-outs. That is until they discover a string of similar murders spanning multiple jurisdictions—all but two of them after Luther’s incarceration. As they dig deeper, a disturbing pattern emerges: women reporting they’re being stalked. Police dismissing their fears, and bodies turning up weeks later.
The stakes escalate when Holly Wilson’s murder brings the FBI into the mix, forcing Tucker to reunite with his former partner David Lewis—a collaboration that threatens to unearth buried tensions. But when another woman, Jessie Mills, comes forward with a terrifying tale of being stalked, the investigators realize they’re in a race against time to prevent history from repeating itself.
Happily Never After is an enthralling thriller that weaves together a complex cold case, the devastating ripple effects of wrongful convictions, and the unexpected way a relationship can bloom in the darkest of circumstances.

When the police refuse to investigate the disappearance of Mallory Carver’s niece, Julie, her family turns to private investigator Tucker Randall and thus set off a dangerous chain of events. Julie disappeared while hiking in the beautiful yet treacherous Cherokee National Forest, and Randall, a former FBI agent with a haunted past, can’t understand why the police won’t get involved. But as he delves deeper into the forest’s secrets, he realizes that someone is willing to do whatever it takes to keep the truth buried, and he’s determined to solve the case and bring the missing girl home.
