1:56 a.m. November 13, 2022. The porch light on King Road was on. Everyone was home. By morning, four students were dead - and the man who killed them was driving back to his apartment, certain he had thought of everything.
He hadn't.
In The Quiet Mind, Jeromy Baumbach reconstructs the Idaho student murders with the patience of a documentary filmmaker and the precision of a court reporter. Drawing on charging documents, cell-tower records, surveillance footage, and two years of public testimony, he traces the killings, the manhunt, and the mind that planned them - without sensation, without speculation, and without ever forgetting whose lives were lost.
Kaylee Goncalves was moving to Austin. Madison Mogen had finished her degree. Xana Kernodle fought back. Ethan Chapin was a triplet, the glue.
This is the story of how four ordinary lives ended on an ordinary Saturday night, and how a man with a PhD in criminology - a man who had spent his adult life studying killers - discovered that he was not as careful as he thought.
For readers of Michelle McNamara, Truman Capote, and Erik Larson.
