Die, My Love

A True Story of Revenge, Murder, and Two Texas Sisters

De: Kathryn Casey

Narrado por: Moe Rock

The day before Halloween 2004 was the last day on Earth for respected, well-liked college professor Fred Jablin. That morning, a neighbor discovered his body lying in a pool of blood in the driveway of Jablin's Virginia home. Police immediately turned their attentions to the victim's ex-wife, Piper, a petite, pretty Texas lawyer who had lost a bitter custody battle and would do anything to get her kids back. But Piper was in Houston, 1,000 miles away, at the time of the slaying and couldn't possibly have been the killer...could she?

So began an investigation into one of the most bizarre cases Virginia and Texas law enforcement agencies had ever encountered: a twisted conspiracy of lies, rage, paranoia, manipulation, and savage murder that would ensnare an entire family - including two lethally close look-alike sisters - and reveal the shocking depravities possible when a dangerously disordered mind slips into madness.

Welcome to true crime satisfaction!

For context, I listen to true crime audiobooks and podcasts all day, every day. It's some sort of fascination of mine--and I am embarrassingly versed in the genre. I LOVED THIS BOOK--and I *rarely* say that about true crime books. Most have tons of flaws. Not this guy.

Bullet points to condense enthusiasm:
• A fairly unknown story
• Insane, batpoop characters who are SO interesting
• Great narrator--clearly knows where the dips are, and when paragraphs end
• Entire thing not just court trial proceedings
• C'mon, Ann Rule loves it. Freakin' Ann Rule!

Use your credit. So satisfying.

Narration unbearable

Tolerable when she wasn’t reading dialogue. Why did anyone allow her to botch the dialogue throughout the book? It’s so bad, I feel sorry for the author.

Mispronounced words can ruin an experience!

Great story! As a Virginia resident, and former resident of the Richmond metropolitan area, I remember this story. The author’s research was great. I only wished that the reader had done the SAME! It is hen-RI-co!! It is a long I and to hear it wrong SO OFTEN was like listening to nails on a chalkboard! It’s a simple thing to check out. This drove me crazy! Very disappointed!

Good read!

If you could sum up Die, My Love in three words, what would they be?

I love reading true stories! It gives a reminder of what "different people" are out there!

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Cry. It is a shame that there is murder!

Any additional comments?

Kathryn Casey is a good author!

he deserved better

she was batshit crazy. and i don't normally swear. my goodness can't hold a job. lawyer ? why didn't she work as a veterinary assistant or vet. something she was good at. I don't understand ppl like her. poor kids

not as good as other Kathryn Casey true crime.

the voice of the narrator made me want to scratch my own eyes out or drive my car off of a bridge. Will never listen to another book with this narrator. terrible accents, forced and fake.

Mediocre at Best

This is a long drawn out account. The players are not that complicated as told. The narrator is very poor, one of the least appealing I’ve heard in a long time. Save your credit.

The Rountree name, my maiden name is Rountree!!

I like the way the author writes these true stories. I have purchased two more of her books
I recently listened to Dirty Little Secrets also an excellent book

A Very Good Read

The story was compelling. So much so that it was hard for me to get to my daily tasks. I am new to this author being the true crime buff that I am, but I am certainly going to check out more of her works.

Pretty Good- No surprises but worth the listen-

Solid story with a good narrator- Nothing that I was surprised at but still a good (but terrible) story-
My condolences to the victims of this terrible crime-
