She dreamed of exposing the truth. Instead, she became the story.

On September 7, 1997, nineteen-year-old Brook Baker, a journalism student at Vincennes University, was found brutally murdered inside her off-campus home in Vincennes, Indiana. She had been stabbed multiple times in a crime so violent it stunned the quiet college town and left investigators searching desperately for answers.

In the days that followed, rumors spread across campus. Friends, classmates, and strangers alike wondered who could have wanted the promising young student dead. Detectives pursued countless leads, yet the investigation seemed to stall as months turned into years. For Brook's family, justice remained painfully out of reach.

Then, nearly a decade later, advances in forensic DNA technology breathed new life into the case. What investigators uncovered shattered long-held assumptions and exposed a killer who had hidden in plain sight.

More than the story of a murder investigation, Brook Baker is the story of a young woman whose future was stolen, a grieving family that refused to give up hope, and the relentless determination of investigators who finally unraveled one of Indiana's most haunting homicide cases.

Written in a compelling narrative style, this true crime account follows the investigation from the discovery of the crime scene through the painstaking forensic work, interviews, and courtroom proceedings that ultimately brought justice for Brook Baker.

For readers of Ann Rule, Vincent Bugliosi, and Joe McGinniss, this is a haunting true story of violence, perseverance, and the enduring search for justice.
