Popular American romance novelist, Nancy Crampton-Brophy, has been taken into custody for killing her husband, years after making a career out of writing steamy fictions about the wrong men.
One of the books she wrote titled 'How To Murder Your Husband' aptly named after it's subject matter, was published in the year 2011.
According to Oregon Live, police took in the 68-year-old to the Multnomah County Detention Center, last week, after alleging she fatally shot Daniel Brophy, her husband of 27 years.
“As a romantic suspense writer, I spend a lot of time thinking about murder and, consequently, about police procedure,” Brophy wrote in the 2011 essay.“After all, if the murder is supposed to set me free, I certainly don’t want to spend any time in jail.”
At the time of his death, Brophy went on Facebook to lament over the news. But she has since been charged for murder and the unlawful use of a weapon, though no clear motive has surfaced.
Some motives could be obtained from the essay, including infidelity, an abusive relationship, and greed.
