A Wife and Mother Brutally Murdered. A Family Torn Apart by Grief and Rage. A Fight for Justice That Had Only Just Begun... To the residents of the tranquil suburban town of St. Charles, Missouri, 28-year-old Elizabeth DeCaro had everything: a beautiful home, a hardworking husband, and four wonderful children. Then the unthinkable happened: Elizabeth was found facedown on her kitchen floor in a pool of blood, shot twice-execution style-in the back of the head. Her husband, Rick DeCaro, had an airtight alibi. But Elizabeth's sister Melanie knew Rick was guilty. Now it would be up to her-and Elizabeth's outraged family-to prove it. Here is the incredible story of a small-town crime that made national headlines...of three explosive trials that exposed a seething hotbed of adultery and abuse, obsessive love and shocking violence...and a stunning verdict that ignited a legal minefield littered with child-custody battles and a chilling final retribution. An unforgettable tale of greed, betrayal, and cold-blooded murder, A Killer Among Us takes you deep into the heartland of America-and into the heart of a family that fought to overcome a tragic miscarriage of justice.
