Although the 1932 kidnapping of aviator Charles Lindbergh’s baby was a worldwide sensation, it was only one of an estimated 3,000 ransom kidnappings that occurred in the United States that year. The epidemic hit America during the Great Depression and the last days of Prohibition as criminal gangs turned kidnapping into the highly lucrative “snatch racket". Wealthy families and celebrities purchased kidnap insurance, hired armed chauffeurs and bodyguards, and carried loaded handguns. Some sent their children to school or summer camp in Europe to get them out of harm’s way.

We tell ourselves we would know. That a killer would carry some visible mark, and that the people we trust could never be capable of the unthinkable. But the most chilling crimes are committed by the husband across the breakfast table, the coworker closing the shop, the polished stranger who remembers your children's names. This collection moves through quiet suburbs, small towns, and faraway cities to reconstruct thirty-six cases where evil wore an ordinary face.

How does a man shake the hand of the First Lady of the United States in May, then drive home and bury a teenage boy under his linen cupboard before midnight?

A few held that distance open for years. Some held it for decades. One died before anyone ever closed it.
