“Compelling. . . . Blum capably maintains the suspense and thoughtfully probes into the motives of key players in this intriguing yet profoundly unsettling story.”—Kirkus Reviews""

The definitive, inside story of the Idaho murders from acclaimed bestselling author Howard Blum, whose groundbreaking coverage of the story was nominated for a Pulitzer Prize.

Timed for a trial that will capture national attention, When the Night Comes Falling examines the mysterious murders of the four University of Idaho students. Having covered this case from its start, Edgar award winning investigative reporter Howard Blum takes listeners behind the scenes of the police manhunt that eventually led to suspected killer, Bryan Christopher Kohberger, and uncovered larger, lurid questions within this unthinkable tragedy.

Reminiscent of the panoramic portraiture of In Cold Blood and The Executioner’s Song, When the Night Comes Falling offers a suspenseful, richly detailed narrative that will have listeners transfixed.

Worth it

The book covers very accurately details that are well known as well as reveals many unknowns in this case. I’ve been following this case anxiously awaiting for the trial to begin and hoping for new information. This book went over many well known details to refresh my memory but also introduced some new details that I hadn’t known about Bryan Kohberger. I highly recommend it!

Accurate, Fascinating and Eye-Opening!
