Описание: Riveting... a personal and highly original work of true-crime storytelling. -- John Douglas, former FBI criminal profiling pioneer and co-author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Mindhunter

A chilling investigation into the unsolved boy in the woods murder; journalist Jim Cosgrove chronicles his decades-long struggle to uncover the truth of a family friends disappearance and death -- perfect for fans of Ill be Gone in the Dark and Memorial Drive.

For nine years, South Carolina officials struggled to identify the boy in the woods, a young man whose body had been discovered just south of Myrtle Beach in a fishing village called Murrells Inlet.

Meanwhile, 1,200 miles away in Kansas City, Missouri, Frank McGonigles family searched for him at Grateful Dead concerts and in the face of every long-haired hitchhiker they passed. Consumed by guilt for how theyd treated him, Franks eight siblings slowly came to understand that -- like Jerry Garcia sang -- hes gone and nothins gonna bring him back.

Frank McGonigle was finally found -- and identified as the boy in the woods.

Four years later, the case still unsolved, Jim Cosgrove, a McGonigle family friend and investigative journalist, picked up the trail of Franks cold case and began uncovering connections to a ruthless local crime boss and blunders by the threadbare sheriffs department.

When his research began to stall, a chance meeting with the soft-hearted, straight-talking energy reader Carol Williams provided a metaphysical spark that reignited Jims resolve. Although his work as a journalist trained him to be skeptical, Cosgrove found himself starting to become a believer when Carol provided details about Franks murder that turned out to be freakishly accurate.

In 2019, Cosgrove returned to Murrells Inlet with one of Franks brothers to dredge up some old leads and settle Franks case once and for all...
