Down to the Bone

Praise for Down to the Bone by Caitlin Rother“Rother presents the riveting story of a botched investigation, multiple suspects, and a web of lies. Was justice ever served?  The question will remain with you long after you finish reading.” —Diane Fanning, author of the Edgar Award finalist Written in Blood   “Rother takes readers with meticulous detail through the journey to find answers to the McStay mystery and the often-troubling investigation and prosecution of the case.  If you love true crime books where the author goes far beyond what is already known and has been proven in court, and raises questions that need to be asked, this is a book for you.” —Justin Brooks, co-founder, California Innocence Project and author of You Might Go to Prison, Even Though You’re Innocent “True crime at its best. Rother successfully dissects this heart-wrenching case. There are so many twists and turns to this tragedy, but it is examined with compassion and detail.” —Alana Quintana Albertson of the Se7en Deadly SEALS serial
