Product Description

Well-liked and respected, Mark Hacking came from a highly successful Mormon family. His father was a pediatrician. One of his brothers was also a doctor, and his other brother was an electrical engineer. With acceptances into both George Washington University and University of North Carolina medical schools, Mark was on the road to continuing his family’s legacy of achievement. And with a beautiful wife by his side, Mark seemed to have it all. But what he had was a tangled web of lies…

For eight years, Mark lived a double life of deceptions, petty crimes, and failures, duping everyone, including his trusting wife Lori. But when Lori uncovered his most extraordinary lie, Mark Hacking turned from deceiver to stone-cold killer. On a hot July day in Utah, Mark Hacking told police that his wife had disappeared while jogging. For fourteen days, searchers looked frantically for Lori. The people who knew Mark Hacking and his wife best watched in amazement as suspicion fell on the outwardly normal, doting young husband who everyone thought was on his way to medical school.

When Lori Hacking’s badly decomposed body was found in a Salt Lake City landfill, investigators and even family members finally discovered the shocking truth: Mark Hacking was not the man he seemed to be...

A Brother's Opinion5
There has been much written in the press and the review about this book. As Lori's brother I lived through the events that were written about. I have found the book to have its fair share of errors but nothing that effects the underlying story of the book.

Lori was every brothers dream and this book portrays who and what Lori really was. I feel the book was well written and provides a good basis for this case.

This book is not anti-mormon nor is the author anti-mormon. The people who write that this book is anti-mormon are portraying their own opinion. I know in my opinion that this book is nothing to do with the LDS Church, except for the fact, that this story occurred in Utah where so much of daily life is intertwined with the LDS Church.

This story is a tragedy that has affected not only the families involved but everyone who become in contact with this story. This book, in general, captures the feelings, emotions, and facts that occurred over the search for Lori, Mark's trial, and all points in between.

Not That Good2
I am a true crime buff...and I found this book rather boring. I could have written the same book, as there was no "inside info"...it seems like the author just gathered all the television news stories and put them inside the book

Very disappointed1
Nothing new here. I knew most of this information from news reports. The detail on the last page was new, but it was put in a strange place -- it didn't seem to fit on the last page.

I kept waiting to find out what Mark did during his missionary trip -- but it was never revealed, unless I missed it. The subject was brought up several times, and it was the only thing that kept me reading -- actually, by the end, I was "skimming," because I was tired of wasting my time on this book.
