Four college students. One killer. The breakthrough that changed criminal investigation forever.

In the early hours of November 13, 2022, evil slipped through an unlocked door in Moscow, Idaho. Within fifteen minutes, four promising young lives were brutally ended: Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin. The killer vanished into the night, leaving behind a crime scene that would baffle investigators and terrorize an entire community.

For seven weeks, the murders remained unsolved.

Then cutting-edge genetic genealogy cracked the case wide open, leading investigators from anonymous DNA to a criminology student living just ten miles away. Bryan Kohberger had spent years studying the very crimes he would commit—learning forensic techniques he hoped would help him escape justice.

He was wrong.

This is the complete story of how modern science caught a killer who thought he was smarter than the system. From the victims' final night of freedom to the genetic breakthrough that identified their murderer, The Idaho Murders reveals:

Why did he do it? Even after his confession, the most haunting question remains unanswered.

Based on court records, police reports, and exclusive research, this gripping account takes you inside one of America's most shocking crimes and the investigation that brought a killer to justice.

Some mysteries can be solved. Others live forever in the darkness of the human heart.
