On the night of October 24th, 1995 a fire blazes in a home on Canterbury Court in Kansas City. This is the home of Debora Green and her three children Timothy (13), Lissa (10) and Kelly (6). Their father Mike Farrar has moved out as he and Debora are in the middle of a divorce. Unfortunately Timothy and Kelly do not escape in time and everyone is left wondering who or what started the fire and how did it lead to such tragic circumstances? 

Ann Rules is such an amazing researcher and writer. What an absolutely bonkers case. It’s unfortunately one of those cases where you get all the answers but don’t feel quite satisfied because the person responsible never fully admits fault or gives their reasons. It’s so incredibly sad.
