Many thanks to NetGalley, Kensington Publishing | Citadel, and Tantor Audio for gifting me both a digital and audio ARC of this true crime book by Caitlin Rother, with the audiobook wonderfully narrated by Christina Delaine. All opinions expressed in this review are my own - 4 stars!
A Southern California family of four seemed to just disappear without a trace in 2010. Everything at home looked normal with no signs of a crime, but the family was just gone. Almost four years later, a motorcyclist found the McStays' remains in the desert, showing signs of murder. A suspect was found, put on trial, and sentenced to death. But is that the end of the story?
This was a very well-researched account of this crime, with questionable actions by the investigators, and a controversial trial. The author did a great job of walking through the suspects, the crime scene and investigation, and trial. It's such a sad story and leaves you questioning the system. Pick this one up if you like a true crime mystery ripped out of the headlines.
