She Called Her Best Friend: The Betrayal, the Baby, and the Murder of Heidi Broussard (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798198199606)

She had been Heidi's best friend since they were eleven years old. She was there at Heidi's first delivery. She showed up when Heidi needed her. So when Heidi Broussard went missing from her Austin home on December 12, 2019, just two weeks after giving birth to her daughter Margot, no one thought to be afraid of the woman who called herself her closest friend.
Eight days later, investigators found Heidi's body in the trunk of a car outside a Houston home. Her newborn daughter was inside, alive and unharmed, being held by Magen Fieramusca as if the baby were her own. Investigators soon discovered that Magen had faked her own pregnancy for nine months, constructed a false identity as an expectant mother, and lured her best friend into a car to be killed.
SHE CALLED HER BEST FRIEND is the complete, unflinching account of one of the most disturbing betrayals in recent American true crime. Drawing on court records, police affidavits, expert psychological analysis, and verified investigative reporting, this book tells the full story of Heidi Broussard's life, her murder, the investigation that brought her killer to justice, and the questions that remain about how someone capable of this kind of violence can hide in plain sight for so long behind the word 'friend.'
Magen Fieramusca is currently serving a 55-year prison sentence. Margot is home with her father. And Heidi deserves to be remembered as more than a headline.
