Andrea Dunlop has a family connection to Munchausen By Proxy (MBP) as her sister has been investigated on charges of MBP twice.  Consequently, her family has been torn apart from the fallout.  She teams up with Mike Weber, a Texas detective who has worked extensively on child abuse cases, especially those involving medical harm.  Together they deep dive three different cases of MBP, those of Hope Ybarra, Brittany Phillips, and Mary Welch.  I was absolutely appalled at their behavior and what they have put these children through.  And what's worse is the behavior of the DA's, judges and those who were supposed to be protecting children.  I can't believe how long it takes to even get a case brought against someone, even when faced with an abundance of evidence of their behavior.  So many times these children are continued to be harmed or even die from this ghastly behavior.  I have always been intrigued my MBP and what makes a person behave in this manner.  It was definitely a chilling account of these poor kids' lives.  Hopefully this will bring a much needed light to these situations and hopefully there will be some changes for the better.

I was gifted an audio copy by @netgalley and @mcamillan audio in exchange for my honest review.  The audiobook was very well done by Andrea.  I will also be checking out her podcast to learn more.  Highly recommend if you have any interest in true crime and child welfare.  It was definitely a binge worthy and I couldn't put it down once I started.
