Based on extensive research and first-hand interviews, this true crime novel offers unprecedented insight into the 2022 Idaho murders and the subsequent trial. The murders of four innocent college students attending the University of Idaho left us with so many questions. Now, James Patterson and prize-winning journalist Vicky Ward finally have some answers. We know what it was like to live in Moscow, Idaho, on November 13, 2022, the day of the cold-blooded killings. We know what the local police and FBI did right. And what they did wrong. We've learned so much about the four heartbroken families-the Mogens, Goncalves, Kernodles, and Chapins. And we have the backstory for Bryan Kohberger, brilliant graduate student, loner, apparent incel. Now you are the jury. The evidence is in. Drawing on exclusive interviews, groundbreaking reporting, and Patterson's in-person attendance of the trial comes a highly detailed story of this complex and horrific crime while honouring the victims. _________________________________ PRAISE FOR JAMES PATTERSON 'Nobody does it better.'
