Leslie Rule Livres

In a gripping true story, bestselling author Leslie Rule uncovers the chilling case of a sadistic sociopath, identity thief, and killer at the center of a real-life fatal attraction. In November 2012, Cari Lea Farver vanished from Omaha, Nebraska. At thirty-seven, she was a devoted mother and reliable friend, not the type to abandon her son or responsibilities, especially during her father's final days. Yet, her phone revealed a different narrative, suggesting she had abruptly ended her relationships and quit her job—all via text. While her boyfriend, Dave Kroupa, and her supervisor were confused by her disappearance, her mother, Nancy Raney, sensed something was wrong and reported her missing. The police were skeptical of Nancy's claims of a cyber impostor hijacking Cari's identity. Meanwhile, Dave grew increasingly fearful of a stalker who seemed obsessed with his girlfriend, Shanna "Liz" Golyar, sending thousands of threatening emails and texts in Cari's name. The stalker knew intimate details about Dave's life, including his phone numbers and even his clothing. Despite numerous reports of threats and vandalism, the stalker remained elusive. With a blend of meticulous research and narrative skill, Rule reveals the sociopath's twisted history, the deception, and the high-tech forensics that ultimately led to justice.
