The first full-length, in depth account of the Caylee Anthony case
When news broke of nearly three-year-old Caylee Anthony's disappearance from her home in Florida in July 2007, there was a huge outpouring of sympathy across the nation. The search for Caylee made front-page headlines. But there was a huge question mark hanging over the case: the girl's mother.

•Why were searches on chloroform and missing children found on her computer?
• Why did she go out partying with friends less than one week after Caylee disappeared?
