Timed prior to the trial that will capture national attention, Blum's newest book, When the Night Comes Falling examines the mysterious murders of the four University of Idaho students. "I hope to tell a suspenseful factual story that will put readers in the midst of events and help them understand what really happened in the still of the night in Moscow, Idaho," he recently said. Having covered this case from its start, the Edgar award winning investigative reporter takes readers 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.
