Amanda Lamb has proven herself to be a charlaton of the first degree. Apparently Ms. Lamb is of the opinion she is endowed with the power to proclaim anyone she chooses guilty of murder.

I not only will not purchase this book but will refuse to purchase anything from this site until this book and any other fictions penned by this scam artist is taken off your site.

Ms. Lamb should be ashamed of herself. One can only hope the defendant in this case, if found not guilty, will sue both her, her publisher and any outlet that peddles her trash!

This book was obviously nearly finished prior to Brad Cooper being convicted. MANY that live in the area do not believe he received a fair trial and this book is further proof. This news reporter (as well as town gossips) had Brad Cooper pegged as guilty before the trial actually began. I watched the entire trial and as a member of the legal system, I refuse to purchase to a book that blatantly ignores the fact that Mr. Cooper's trial was a travesty of justice. From a clearly biased judge to prosecutorial misconduct, this trial was an embarrassment to Wake County and the State of North Carolina. I will not be purchasing this book and encourage everyone to read about what REALLY happened in the courtroom. Guilty or not, everyone is entitled to a fair trial. Brad Cooper DID NOT get a fair trial!

Amanda Lamb, the author of this book, wrote this before this case even came to trial. She has been very biased in her reporting on this story and I don't see how it can even be legal to promote a book claiming ones guilt before he has even been on trial. I guess Amanda Lamb does not believe in Brad Cooper's constitutional right of 'innocent until proven guilty'. I will not buy this book and I will proclaim it unfit of Amanda Lamb to have written this trash every chance I get! I hope, with all that I am worth, that Brad Cooper is found not guilty and that he sues Amanda Lamb for slandering him!

Think twice before buying this book. It is listed on several sites already, yet the trial is still going on!

Seems the author has already made up her mind who killed Nancy Cooper. Too bad the jury hasn't yet.

Maybe this should be listed as fiction.

I would suggest that anyone interested in
reading this book....go to WRAL.COM and search for
Brad Cooper Murder Trial....view the trial first and then
decide whether or not you care to read the book....
something was very wrong about how a Canadian man who
lived in Cary, NC was RAILROADED in court....convicted of first degree murder (which makes no sense based on the
trial itself-but I guess the members of the jury did not
get it)...was sentenced to life in prison without parole....this was such an injustice to our AMERICAN judicial system....http://ireport.cnn.com/docs/DOC-604838

Enjoyed this book very much. Well written and comprehensive.

The author reports for WRAL in Raleigh NC and has written and appeared on TV claiming that this man is guilty. The trial is still going on and so far it does not look like he will be found guilty and may in fact be innocent. I find it appalling that a journalist has so much invested in someones guilt even before the start of a trial.

Ms Lamb used to be really smokin' hot - like back in the Hurricane Fran timeframe ('96). Now, she's anorexic and looks like Skeletor - the advent of HD Tv has not been kind, whereas we used to be dazzled by the lip gloss - now we're aghast at the sunken cheeks.

Oh - and yeah, she decided to write a story about how Brad Cooper murdered his wife - something that late in the trial (after the book - is this ok?) sure doesn't look to be conclusively proven (not even a little).
