Summary

Is any place safe? When a child guarded by life in a wholesome, All-American community disappears, is that proof that evil is lurking around every idyllic corner? In the fall of 1982, 12-year-old Johnny Gosch disappeared while delivering newspapers in the suburban neighborhood of West Des Moines, Iowa. The mystery of his disappearance and the investigation surrounding it would go on to change his family, and the country, forever.
