The timestamp on the video of the white pickup truck turned out to be incorrect. The truck was never in the area on the morning Lauren went missing.

A few things new I learned from the book. First, the video showing CR making several calls to the girl in Massachusetts, BB. I would like to know if BB's mother, who called the writer, knows more. Her comment about who she thinks was involved was interesting.

I just finished the book, and I found it to be well written and informative. It dealt frankly and in detail with Lauren's extended struggles with alcohol and drugs, which I was not aware of. It also noted her heart rhythm disorder, Long QT Syndrome.
The potential suspects were all described in detail, with detailed accounts of inconsistencies in their narratives and in some cases, deceptions.
Without an arrest or discovery of remains, the book is as good as it can be under these circumstances.

Thanks for your opinion.
I chose this for my true crime book club in the fall.
Interesting - I did not know that. It still looks like a girl wearing a white shirt and black pants but I guess that would be irrelevant if it wasn’t that night/morning.

Cohen uncovered for the first time that Corey Rossman, the man Lauren Spierer was with most of the night, made a phone call around 3 a.m. as Lauren Spierer could barely stand and had to be carried from one place to the next.
"I was surprised by the 3 a.m. phone call. And it was quite interesting to confront the person he called," Cohen said.
But Rossman, and the old friend on the other end of the line, deny any memory of the call.
Jay Rosenbaum was also with Lauren Spierer that night. His townhome is where Spierer reportedly ended up before Rosenbaum said she demanded to walk home.
He was the last person to see her alive and has never spoken to the media, until Cohen.

This is the key and has always been the key for me.

Just finished this book and it has my brain going a million miles an hour. I've always been invested in this case and after reading the book it just makes me think.... someone knows something. A girl does not simply vanish into thin air. With so many CCTV cameras scouring the area, I find it truly hard to believe that Lauren even made it out of that apartment complex. It was frustrating back in 2011 and it's equally as frustrating now. Again, I have to imagine someone knows something. Whether that being the friends that she was with that evening, or someone completely different. It's time to speak up!

JMO I have always felt the friends knew something but it is way past time for them to speak up.
If they haven’t by now will they ever?

I agree! By the tone in the book regarding the friends, I don't see them having a change of heart anytime soon. I think the police need a major tip/lead that would tie them directly to her disappearance and likely murder. I'm hoping sometime soon they get that break...
