À propos de cet audio

“Les Standiford’s account of the decades-long attempt to solve the murder of Adam Walsh is chilling, heartbreaking, hopeful, and as relentlessly suspenseful as anything I’ve ever read. A triumph in every way.”
—Dennis Lehane, author of Mystic River

“The most significant missing child case since the Lindbergh’s….A taut, compelling and often touching book about a long march to justice.”
—Scott Turow, author of Presumed Innocent

The abduction that changed America forever, the 1981 kidnapping and murder of six-year-old Adam Walsh—son of John Walsh, host of the Fox TV series America’s Most Wanted—in Hollywood, Florida, was a crime that went unsolved for a quarter of a century. Bringing Adam Home by author Les Standiford is a harrowing account of the terrible crime and its dramatic consequences, the emotional story of a father and mother’s efforts to seek justice and resolve the loss of their child, and a compelling portrait of Miami Beach Homicide Detective Joe Matthews, whose unwavering dedication brought the Adam Walsh case to its resolution.

I was hoping this story would have been more focused on the aftermath of John and Reve. I felt it was more of a biography of otis toole and his crimes.

Not what I thought it would be

The abduction and murder of Adam Walsh is worth learning, if you want to understand how the USA came to have a database of missing and murdered persons. Plus how John Walsh and the show America’s Most Wanted took their place in our world. But be warned, there are grisly details to the case that, due to the nature of evidence, and how it was eventually solved, are repeated over and over again. Don’t listen if you are squeamish or easily triggered. That aside, the story is well told.
