Happily Never After: Dan and Nancy
4.1/5
Critic Rating
Nancy Brophy fills her novels with romantic betrayals and murder. It’s a far cry from her quiet life in the suburbs, where she and her chef husband, Dan, are living out their golden years. But when Dan is shot dead, Nancy finds herself at the center of a murder case that could be ripped from the pages of her novels.From Wondery, this is a story about what happens when the line blurs between fiction and reality.

"The host is good (former true crime reporter and romance novelist who was in Nancy’s writer’s group Heidi Joy Tretheway) and the script is good (Nichole Perkins is in the credits.) I love the cover."

"I realized it had been a minute since I listened to a Wondery audio product, and I was quite content to be reunited with these predictable, professional builds and beats...if you want intel, it’s perfect. Happily Never After is a perfectly cromulent listen, but if you already know the ending, you can spend time on something else."
