Netflix released a documentary in its true-crime series in 2020. The series received worldwide attention. YouTuber Alan Vinnicombe with the channel 'Armchair Detective, No Hiding Place' is an independent investigator that has studied the Chris Watts case since day one. This book is the first in a 3 set series examining the case using materials released by Weld County's District Attorney's office. The file contained surveillance photos, search warrants, FBI interviews, text messages, call logs, and police interviews with friends and family of Shanann and Chris Watts. In this first book, Alan guides the reader through the official narrative set forth by DA Michael Rourke. Alan adopted the name 'The Shadow Man' after discovering a shadow on the driveway of the Watts family home showing Chris bending down to pick up what turned out to be one of his children. This is contrary to the official narrative delivered by DA Rourke when he stated in the court that Chris Watts had carried out his entire deceased family to his truck 'like trash'. In addition, Alan has shown categorically that no one died in the house thus proving beyond doubt that, again, DA Rourke got it wrong.
