The story of Nancy, a romance mystery writer married to a chef, was compared to her own novels because it ended tragically, with her husband's death. The podcast episode speculates whether she got so wrapped up in her writing that it started spilling into real life, as her novels feature murder.
"
Nancy's love story could have been ripped right out of the pages of one of her own novels.
She was a romance mystery writer who happens to be married to a chef.
But this story didn't end with a happily ever after.
When I stepped into the kitchen, I could see that Chef Brophy was on the ground and I heard somebody say, call 911.
As writers, we'd written our share of murder mysteries.
So when suspicion turned to Dan's wife Nancy, we weren't that surprised.
The first person they look at would be the spouse.
We understand that's usually the way they do it.
But we began to wonder, had Nancy gotten so wrapped up in her own novels... There are murders in all of the books. ...that she was playing them out in real life?
