Happily Never After: Dan and Nancy Wondery
-
- True Crime
-
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.

Customer Reviews
Hoping for more seasons
Glad I gave this a try. Interesting story, well told, good interviews and pace. Hoping for more
Tone issues
Why does the host sound like she is reading to children?
Why is the music fun, quirky, upbeat?
These are my questions.
Terrible narrator and insensitive
This is the podcast that will make me cancel my Wondery+ subscription.
The narrator is so overdramatic that it ruins what she is saying. And this is an actual true crime - the way she tells the story turns it into a joke that feels insensitive to the fact that a real person actually died.
