**INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER**
"This book is the heartbreaking story that every parent dreads . . . Cohen sheds light on what really happened the night Lauren was never seen again." —David Crow, author of The Pale-Faced Lie
She visited friends. She walked to a bar. She was right there . . . until she was gone.
College student Lauren Spierer was pursuing her dreams, joining her boyfriend at a party school eight hundred miles from home. Social and gregarious, studying fashion and rooming with friends, Lauren embraced her new adventure with the zeal of a young woman who suddenly had everything she desired.
But there was a dark side that she and her inner circle kept secret. And one warm June evening, after heading out with friends, she seemingly vanished. When investigators retraced Lauren's last steps using eyewitness accounts and security camera footage, the evidence ended at the doorstep of a group of wealthy, well-connected male students.
With original reporting including new testimony witnesses never shared with police, College Girl, Missing takes listeners back to that fateful night and dives into the disappearance that captured front-page headlines around the world. Investigative journalist Shawn Cohen breaks more than a decade of silence as he pursues the truth: what really happened to Lauren Spierer?

The two couples were devout, hardworking Baptists who lived perfect, quintessentially Southern lives. Their friendship seemed ironclad. That is, until December 16, 2000, when Denise’s husband Mike disappeared while duck hunting on Lake Seminole. After no body was found, everyone assumed that Mike had drowned in a tragic accident, his body eaten by alligators. But things took an unexpected turn when Brian Winchester divorced his wife and married Denise.

One of his high school classmates, Danny Corwin, was a vicious serial killer. In this chilling tale, Burrough raises important questions of whether serial killers can be recognized before they kill or rehabilitated after they do.

For his victims, for their families and for the investigators tasked with finding him, the senselessness and brutality of the Golden State Killer's acts were matched only by the powerlessness they felt at failing to uncover his identity. Then, on April 24, 2018, authorities arrested 72-year-old Joseph James DeAngelo at his home in Citrus Heights, Calif., based on DNA evidence linked to the crimes. Amazingly, it seemed, evil finally had a name. Please note: This work contains descriptions of violent crime and sexual assault and may not be suitable for all listeners.

In a gay nightclub in Orlando on June 12, 2016, the shooter, Omar Mateen, murdered 49 people and wounded 53 others. The attack was the deadliest act of violence against the LGBTQ+ community in US history and the deadliest terrorist attack in the United States since 9/11. But there’s a story you haven’t heard. The FBI had a secret history with the shooter and his father. To obscure that history, the FBI pushed a false story that the media dutifully carried—that the attacker was a secretly gay Islamist extremist who had chosen to target Pulse and planned the attack for weeks.

Kept me interested
I am from Bloomington, IN, so Lauren Speirer is a well known name around here. Many from my family went on the search party. I was very anxious to listen to this book. Unfortunately, this is a true story and if people felt unsatisfied with the ending, it’s to no fault of the author. We all want to know what happened to her, but the author can only tell us the facts…and the fact is, there may never be anymore answers. I would recommend and have recommended this book to friends and family.

Incredibly insightful-
Learned a lot! The story is filled with details to help shed some light on this case. So glad I read/listened.
The narrator was very good too.

interesting, gripping, crucial
This is a story of one man's dedication to getting a grieving family answers in the disappearance of their child. This was a cade I followed when it happened as we were the same age. I was just dumbfounded and still am to this day that she has not yet been found and her case has gone cold. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

A bit too dribble
Not as investigative I was hoping..the last few chapters were too author centered and their personal life had very little journalistic value

Boring
Is there anything outside of what was reported 12 years ago. It felt more like a chance for the author to make a comeback.

It's Okay
If you hover over a two-star rating, you see the phrase, "It's Okay." That is the way I feel about this book. It is not bad, but if you expect some new revelation about the case, you will be disappointed. There is a lot of superfluous information involving the author and his attempt to salvage his credibility from an incident that undermines it. He speculates quite a bit about the people he considers suspects in the case, but he has not uncovered any new evidence. It's just okay.
