Acerca de esta escucha
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 19-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.

Historia
Joyce Aparo seemed to be the perfect single mother. She doted on her sixteen-year-old daughter, Karin, encouraging her musical ability and lavishing affection on her. But behind closed doors, Joyce was a terror. For thirteen years, she beat Karin savagely and demeaned her relentlessly. When Karin met the troubled yet brilliant Dennis Coleman, the two fell head-over-heels. But Joyce disapproved—so she had to die.

Historia
Schoolteacher Olivia Dare Christian was murdered in her Hampton, Virginia, apartment in 1981. Her killer left few clues and the murder went unsolved. Three decades later, in 2011, next-generation detective Randy Mayer re-opened Olivia's dusty cold case file and began unraveling the mystery. Mayer located a reluctant witness who was a teenager back in 1981. She recalled a suspicious man lurking outside Olivia's apartment the morning of the murder and provided a detailed description of the man.

Seven Bones is the story of one of the more bizarre murder investigations in Australia’s history. Two wives die in suspicious circumstances: co-incidence or, as husband Thomas Keir describes it, ‘bad luck’? Three years after Thomas Keir alleged his first wife, Jean, deserted him and her young son for another man, his second wife, Rosalina, Jean’s cousin, lay scorched and strangled on her bed. Arriving on the scene, Detective Peter Seymour realised he was either dealing with the world’s unluckiest husband or a serial wife killer.

In 1911 two British heiresses, Claire and Dora Williamson, read a brochure about a revolutionary fasting treatment that promised a lifetime of good health. The sanatorium in the village of Olalla, west of Seattle, was surrounded by a beautiful forest, sparkling waters and fresh air. The sisters agreed it sounded perfect and exactly the restorative holiday they needed. But within a month of arriving, under the supervision of Doctor Linda Burfield Hazzard, Claire and Dora began to realise the frightening truth – they were not patients but prisoners at the isolated sanitorium.

Lesser Known and Fascinating Story, Great Pacing and Narrative Structure
For me, finding a book about a subject that I like, but of a story I had no knowledge of is a rare occurrence. This one is exactly that. A tale of depression era “gangsters” pulling off a ransom and kidnapping that has so many fascinating details. The narration is excellent and the book is well written. Great work!

A riveting kidnap story
The kidnapping of George Weyerhaeuser was the talk of the Pacific Northwest in the late 1930’s. The attention to detail by the author is admirable. Juxtaposition of current times to those times was highly achievable by the author. An excellent listen all around

Incredible story in my own backyard
I enjoyed the story so much as I live in the area. Grew up knowing of the company but never heard about the kidnapping of the Weyerhaeuser child. Very interesting twists and turns. Highly recommend this story.

An Interesting Take on a Piece of Our History
I did enjoy this book. I enjoyed the topic. I was intrigued by how many other historical figures were woven into the chapter about Alcatraz. it was such a small world. Very interesting to learn about the legaI workings under Hoover. My how far down we've come since! I did enjoy the book, but did find myself losing interest, a bit, during all of the chapters about the trials. They drug on a bit. overall, a great story. Ended very well. Glad to find this.

Awful
The biggest mystery in this account of the 1935 kidnapping of a little boy is the 5 star ratings ladled out by reviewers.
Having arrived at chapter 30 with no discernible interest in sight, I am packing it in.
