Rother is the next Ann Rule. -Gregg Olsen Chelsea King was a popular high school senior, an outstanding achiever determined to make a difference. Fourteen-year-old Amber Dubois loved books and poured her heart into the animals she cared for. Treasured by all who knew them, both girls disappeared in San Diego County, just eight miles and one year apart. The families' anguish galvanized the community and captivated the media.

Ultimately, Gardner shared a prison unit with Charles Manson. In 2010, Gov.
