This has clearly been inspired by and based on a real-life crime including a child (!), so we are not going to even mention that and basically create a theory about that and profit off of it and not even disclose it. Is this history repeating itself again? And is the "author" getting away with it again? Doesn't sit right with me. Although it IS NOT written in a podcast format, it unfortunately still mostly READS like one-with the exception of the sub-plot with Margot’s Uncle. Her best friend and next door neighbor, Margot Davies, also six at the time, always wondered if it could have just as easily been her killed that night-and now twenty years later, she is a journalist who is still obsessed with the crime. I hope you will join the Spoiler Discussion for All Good People Here! Talk to me in comments! What did you think of the book, the ending, all of it? Do you listen to podcasts? Let’s discuss this! You can also read my review of All Good People Here!
Margot Davies was January’s best friend and 6 at the time of her BFFs disappearance and it shook her to her core. Believing in the real life boogey man her whole life since that fateful night. Twenty years later, and Margot is now all grown up and a hot shot crime journalist. January’s cold case has always haunted her and now in a neighbouring town another little girl goes missing under suspiciously similar circumstances.Jodie thinks Dave/Luke did it, because Krissy died right after telling him he was the father of the twins. January Jacobs was just six years old, when she was found dead in a ditch, hours after her family woke up and found her gone. Her case was never solved.
Ashley Flowers has taken her passion for true crime to new dimensions. . . . Flowers’s strong debut [is the] perfect summer mystery.” — People Billy realizes that Margot suspects him and tells her it was an accident. That Krissy also realized he did it and he had to kill her too. Spoiler Discussion for All Good People Here Here are my major questions about All Good People Here: Billy then intends to kill Margot when he realizes she knows he killed January. What really happened to January Jacobs in All Good People Here? All Good People Here has plot elements similar to a completely spectulative and unproven theory about the JBR case, that one or both of JBR’s parents staged the scene to cover up the fact that someone in the family was involved in what happened to JonBenét.

Elliott’s sister Annabelle told Margot that Elliott had a storage unit that she was paying for. Margot and Jodie broke into the storage unit and found trophies Elliott was keeping from Natalie, Polly, and ten other girls. There was a box for January, but strangely, it only had a few of her dance recital programs, and no personal items. Special thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishing Group/ Ballantine for sharing this digital reviewer copy with me in exchange my honest thoughts. April’s body was found a few days later. The case went cold. Then, two years later in 1990, someone wrote a creepy message on the side of a barn confessing to April’s murder. i can’t wait to see what ashley did with this book!! she’s such a great podcaster. literally PRAYING i get this arc 😭😭 i am not above begging All Good People Here has enough twists and layers for three novels. Ashley Flowers has taken a premise familiar to true-crime fans and created a story that’s compelling and psychologically rich, with an ending that’s as unnerving as it is satisfying.” —Lou Berney
A man named Elliot Wallace killed Polly and Natalie, along with a number of other young girls. He was finally caught by a tip sent to the police by Margot. On the night of January’s murder, Dave told Billy that he was the twins’ father, sending Billy into the rage that would lead to January’s death.

Well my generosity went out the door the more I thought about this most convoluted, ridiculous fell off the cliff ending and the time I wasted reading this book. Eight year-old April was out playing with a friend and decided to home and get her umbrella. Then she vanished. I am never a fan of a plot with an elaborate cover-up for an accident, something that happens in many books. Tragic accidents happen and unless it’s something like a DUI, people rarely get thrown in prison for them. Above, I argued that there was no logical reason for Billy to kill his daughter. Is he just a psychopath who cold-bloodedly kills two (or three) people over something that clearly could have been interpreted as an accident? I think January’s fall down the stairs would have been seen as a tragic accident, due to sleepwalking or slippery stairs. (Shades of The Staircase!) Always tell someone where you’re going, especially if you’re going to meet up with ANYONE who could be a suspect in a murder case. Like the father of one victim and the husband of another. Margot!
