It is a crime even the FBI must have considered fantastic and absurd. In 1935, nine-year-old George Weyerhaeuser, heir to one of the wealthiest families in America, is snatched off the streets two blocks from his home. The boy is kept manacled in a pit, chained to a tree, and locked in a closet. The perps--a career bank robber, a petty thief, and his nineteen-year-old never-been-in-trouble Mormon wife--quickly become the targets of the biggest manhunt in Northwest history. The caper plays out like a Hollywood thriller with countless twists and improbable developments. Perhaps the most astonishing thing of all, though, is how it all ends.Binding Type: PaperbackAuthor: Bryan JohnstonPublisher: Post Hill PressPublished: 09/14/2021ISBN: 9781642939033Pages: 336Weight: 1.20lbsSize: 8.90h x 5.90w x 0.90d
