Filled with mysterious riddles, incredible coincidences, and a cast of unusual but very real characters, his investigation quickly becomes a riveting journey in search of the truth.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><strong>"Poignant and wonderfully well-written."</strong> -- Richard North Patterson, New York Times bestselling author of Silent Witness</p><p>"I fell in love with Amy Mihaljevic not long before her body was discovered lying facedown in an Ashland County wheat field. I fell for her the first time I saw that school photo TV stations flashed at the beginning of every newscast in the weeks following her kidnapping in the autumn of 1989--the photo with the side-saddle ponytail ..."</p><p>So begins this strange and compelling memoir in which a young journalist investigates the cold case that has haunted him since childhood. </p><p>It's one of Northeast Ohio's most frustrating unsolved crimes. Ten-year-old Amy Mihaljevic (Muh-ha-luh-vick) disappeared from the comfortable Cleveland suburb of Bay Village. Thousands of volunteers, police officers, and FBI agents searched for the girl, who was tragically found dead a few months later. Her killer was never found. </p><p>Fifteen years later, journalist James Renner picks up the leads. Filled with mysterious riddles, incredible coincidences, and a cast of odd but very real characters, his investigation quickly becomes a riveting journey in search of the truth. </p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>Poignant and wonderfully well-written.-- "Richard North Patterson, author of Silent Witness" (1/25/2007 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Reads like a who-done-it, with lively and fast-paced narrative.--Laura Kennelly "Morning Journal" (12/17/2006 12:00:00 AM)<br><br>Reads more like a screenplay than your typical tell all crime story. It is compelling, riveting and hard to set down. The characters are flushed out and frighteningly honest . . . A well written, passionate narrative that has a place on your shelf, but more importantly a place in your thoughts. Sadly, it is necessary to remind ourselves bad people live around us, watch our children and are dangerous. Renner brings that to light all too well.--Michael Dakota "Cuyahoga Falls News Press" (12/17/2006 12:00:00 AM)<br>
