The Idaho Four: An American Tragedy

"A vivid portrait ... a sensitive tribute ... a paean to youth, community, and the tenacity of local law enforcement." --New York Times

"This is much more than a true crime book. It's a vivid exploration of the range of human response when faceless terror strikes. It's a portrait of America in this polarized moment." --Town & Country

The Idaho Four, an instant #1 New York Times bestseller, chronicles the story that began on November 13, 2022, in Moscow, Idaho. In the dark early hours, the lives of four friends and college students were cut short by unspeakable violence. The book--now featuring a newly reported conclusion--is an exploration of a complex criminal investigation and its devastating aftermath. It is a timeless portrait of the worst and best in us.

"Clearest profile yet of the twisted quadruple killer and his motives." --New York Post

"Perhaps the definitive account of the murders--a disturbing, necessary portrait of a killer and his victims." --Guardian
