In The Doomsday Mother, bestselling true crime author John Glatt tells the twisted tale of Lori Vallow, accused of having her two children murdered to start a new life with her new husband, doomsday prepper Chad Daybell.At first, the residents of Kauai Beach Resort took little notice of their new neighbors. The glamorous blonde and her tall husband fit the image of the ritzy gated community. The couple seemed to keep to themselves-until the police knocked on their door with a search warrant. Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell had fled to Hawaii in the midst of being investigated for the disappearance of Loris children back in Idaho-Tylee and JJ-who hadnt been seen alive in five months.For years, Lori Vallow had been devoted to her children and her Mormon faith. But when her path crossed with Chad Daybell, a religious zealot who taught his followers how to prepare for the end-times, the tumultuous relationship transformed her into someone unrecognizable. As authorities searched for Loris children, they uncovered more suspicious deaths with links to both Lori and Chad, including the death of Loris third and fourth husbands, her brother, and Chads wife. In June 2020, the gruesome remains of JJ and Tylee were discovered on Chads property, and the newlyweds were arrested and charged with murder. And in a shocking development, horrifying statements revealed that the couples fanatical beliefs had convinced them the children had become zombies--a belief that may have led to their deaths.Bestselling author and journalist John Glatt takes readers deeper into the devastating story of Lori Vallow and Chad Daybell in an attempt to unravel the lethal relationship of this doomsday couple.
