#29: The Man Named John

Security cameras capture a silver vehicle following a woman from a church parking lot, maintaining a careful distance. Seventeen seconds after she leaves, the car pulls out behind her. When she arrives home and opens her garage door, what unfolds in those next moments will nearly cost her everything.

What investigators will later uncover is a plot involving multiple criminals, millions in embezzled money, and someone determined to make her death look like an accident. But as detectives trace prepaid phones and cash transactions back through time, they discover the conspiracy didn't start recently—it began while she was on a mission trip halfway around the world, and continued even as she attended church services and learned to dance with her spouse. The question that will haunt everyone who learns the details is devastating: how long had someone been planning her murder, and who stood to gain from her death?
