Description:

On the night of Saturday, November 12, 2022, four University of Idaho students went out with friends, came home, and went to bed. By the time the sun came up, all four of them were dead. Madison Mogen. Kaylee Goncalves. Xana Kernodle. Ethan Chapin. Twenty and twenty-one years old. Stabbed in their beds in a quiet college town that had not seen a single homicide in five years. What followed was one of the most gripping true crime investigations in modern American history — forty-seven days of silence, a community holding its breath, and a forensic breakthrough so precise it reads like fiction. The man eventually arrested was not a drifter or a stranger to the area. He was a PhD student in criminology, eight miles away, who had driven past that house at least twelve times in the dark before he came back to kill. Bryan Kohberger pleaded guilty. He was sentenced to four consecutive life terms. He has never explained why he committed these murders. In this book, I take you inside everything the headlines missed. The forensic breakthrough that cracked the case. The families in that Boise courtroom. The surviving roommate who opened her bedroom door and saw something she will never unsee. And the silence at the centre of it all that no verdict and no life sentence has ever filled. The case is closed. The truth is not. You have heard the case. Now hear the story. Duration - 3h 12m.
