MATERNAL INSTINCT

She needed a baby. She found one.

For ten months, Taylor Parker wore a silicone belly, forged ultrasound photographs, and stood at the center of a gender reveal party thrown in her honor, accepting the congratulations of people who loved her for a child she was not carrying. When the calendar ran out and the due date arrived, she did not confess. She did not disappear. She drove forty miles through the piney backroads of northeast Texas to a young woman's house and took what she needed.
Reagan Simmons-Hancock was twenty-one years old. She was days from meeting her daughter. She never got the chance.
MATERNAL INSTINCT is the unflinching, deeply researched true account of one of the most calculated crimes in modern American history. It is the story of a woman who built an entire false life on a lie and followed that lie to its most brutal conclusion. It is the story of the investigators who connected two crime scenes forty miles apart before the sun went down. And it is, above all, the story of Reagan and her daughter Braxlynn Sage, two people who deserved every year they did not get.
