Resumen del Editor

Adam Cox and Rex Conner, the brother and uncle of Lori Daybell, have had their family torn apart by Lori's lies, which ultimately cost at least four innocent people their lives.

Just a few short months before the killing started, Lori spoke casually with Adam in her kitchen one day, but what she told him frightened him to his core.

“I don’t have to eat ever again,” Lori said, her gaze locked on Adam, “and if you shoot me, the bullet won’t hurt me. My body has almost completed the process of becoming immortal.”

So begins the often bizarre, almost unbelievable tale of Lori Daybell, as told by two of the people who know her best: Adam Cox and Rex Conner. What follows is the hauntingly tragic account of Lori Daybell's transformation from loving sister, daughter, niece, wife, and mother to murderous manipulator.

Throughout the book, Adam weaves together stories about growing up with Lori. He then takes the listener through her four marriages and three divorces, as Lori welcomes her children into her heart and homes. Adam identifies several behaviors and patterns that may offer insight into Lori's actions and her beliefs. Uncle Rex offers wisdom as he seeks to answer the question: WHY would anyone commit such travesties? And HOW could someone become so estranged from her own internal guidance system that she can't hear it at all?

Ultimately this is a book about healing. It is about the process of finding grace and meaning by sharing and normalizing stories of pain and despair. It is about recognizing silver linings as precious gifts. It is about celebrating the redeeming love of friendship and community.

The Honesty

It was uplifting and healing. Adam and Rex did a wonderful job. I hope they continue to heal.

Honest, vulnerable truth that leads to healing

I liked it all, I’m listening a second time, who knows maybe I’ll listen a third time. God keeps showing me nuggets 💕

Truth Spoken

Thank you both for writing this book. It helps me understand so much more about this case. RIP to everyone that died.

I loved hearing the authors voices

I enjoyed reading this book and hearing it was even better! I love Adam and Rex and appreciate all the work they put into writing this book. It’s impossible not to cry along with them as they choke up telling their stories. I love their perspectives on hope and healing following this horrific family tragedy.

How much Rex and Adam not only cared about Tylee and JJ, but they care about the things going on in their optimist’s lives too.

I read the paperback and have listened to the audio book. It is heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time! I love the vulnerability and the openness & honesty of their story.

Emotion and honesty

I appreciate the insight of the events from their perspective. My heart aches for them as they are going through this.

Fantastic Book

I loved how honest this book was and I enjoyed that the authors narrated it. I am a podcast listener and loved how they brought in comments from their subscribers. I thought the book flowed nicely and had a lot of insight. I enjoyed every moment of it.

family members lies and other family members & friends suffer...

I love book...not only does it help the people who knew JJ , Tyler, Charles & Tammy...but it people with everything day problems.... like me....thanks Rex and Adam... sending love....

What stood put the most is the true emotion that was shown and felt.

There wasn't any part that I did not like. I love the honesty of Adam and Rex. I can't imagine the emotions when you have to face the reality of what your family members have done. Tragic, all the way around.

Loved that Rex and Adam did the narration

I have followed this case and their podcast from the beginning and thought I was all cried out...But when Adam talked about picking up Lori... The emotion in his voice broke my heart. I think it's easy to forget that Lori is a loved family member. It is beautiful how they let total strangers express their emotions concerning this case without anger or judgment. Thanks for caring and sharing on your podcast & I loved the book!
