As with Rother’s previous books, this was meticulously researched and crafted. Down to the Bone is a gripping deep dive into the tragic case of the McStay family, who vanished from their Southern California home in 2010. Rother unravels the chilling mystery of their brutal murders, the controversial conviction of Chase Merritt, and the lingering doubts that haunt the case. A haunting true-crime read that challenges the boundaries of justice and leaves readers questioning what really happened.
