A missing young woman. A Los Angeles hotel with a haunting history. A perplexing real-life mystery. With stunning new insights and impeccable research, investigative journalist Jake Anderson explores the case that captivated a nation and inspired the Netflix series Crime Scene: The Vanishing at the Cecil Hotel! Exclusive interviews and photos included.

Twenty-one-year-old student Elisa Lam was last heard from on January 31, 2013, after she checked into downtown L.A.'s Cecil Hotel -- a 600-room building with a nine-decade history of scandal and tragedy. The next day, Elisa vanished. More than a week later, guests' complaints of poor water quality led to a grim discovery: Elisa's nude body floating in a rooftop water tank. The only clue was a disturbing elevator video of Elisa, uploaded to YouTube in a plea for public assistance.

As the video went viral, journalist Jake Anderson set out to uncover the facts. In Gone at Midnight he chronicles eye-opening discoveries about who Elisa Lam really was and what -- or whom -- she was running from, offering stunning new insights into one of the most chilling and obsessively followed true crime cases of the century.

"Outstanding... What really happened to Lam may never be known, but true crime buffs won't want to miss this gripping search for the truth."
-Publishers Weekly STARRED REVIEW

"Extremely detailed and featuring new evidence... Anderson's thorough research and passionate writing make a fascinating read."

"Gone at Midnight is the type of true crime book that you stay up all night reading."
