She Wrote Her Captivity: A Wildflower Margin Saved Her Life

A county surveyor found a dry library paperback wedged in a hollow oak after three days of rain, its margins filled with dates, measurements, a truck color and a name written over 153 days - could a library book be the only record of five months of a disappearance? What did Susan Richardson hide in a field guide to Ohio wildflowers that turned a routine missing-person call into a puzzle with a single, handwritten timeline?

In this episode, we present the facts as found at the scene and in the margins of the book: the timeline of Susan Richardson’s last routine morning, the discovery of the annotated field guide, and the details that made Detective George O'Connor treat the case as something other than an ordinary disappearance. How did a woman’s organized habits and a narrow-margin decision at the library become the evidence that might explain where she went?

Person: Susan Richardson
Date: October 17, 2018 (last seen)
