Within days, police – and even those closest to Marie – became suspicious of her story. Confronted by these minor inconsistencies and doubt, Marie broke down and said her story was a lie. The police charged her with making a false report. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo years later, Colorado detective Stacy Galbraith was assigned to a case of sexual assault. It bore an eerie resemblance to a rape that had taken place months earlier in a nearby town. Joining forces with the detective on that case, Edna Hendershot, the two soon discovered they were dealing with a serial rapist. As their investigation deepened, it became clear that numerous police departments had extremely similar cases on their hands – and that Marie's story bore an eerie resemblance to the cases they were investigating.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eUnbelievable \u003c\/i\u003eis a chilling tale of doubt, lies, and the hunt for justice, unveiling the disturbing reality of how sexual assault is investigated and the long history of scepticism toward its victims.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e________________________________________\u003cbr\u003ePreviously published as \u003ci\u003eA False Report\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBrilliant detective work, very well told. * Evening Standard *\u003cbr\u003eDisturbing and meticulously researched, this is a vital book for the #MeToo era. * Stylist, Best True Crime Books Ever Written *\u003cbr\u003eAn important and necessary book that tells a complicated, uncomfortable story clearly and with great power. * i paper *\u003cbr\u003eWith meticulous forensic detail, this true story is as disturbing as it compelling. * Sunday Mirror *\u003cbr\u003eRemarkable * TLS *","brand":"Cornerstone","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48741426757975,"sku":"9781786090072","price":10.44,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781786090072.jpg?v=1720057551","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/unbelievable-the-shocking-truth-behind-the-hit-netflix-series-9781786090072","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
