Despite an unparalleled effort to find him, his whereabouts remained a mystery for 27 years--until his kidnapper, arrested on another charge, confessed to Wetterling's murder and led authorities to his buried remains in September 2016. Wetterling's disappearance--and the national media attention that followed--had far-reaching effects. No longer was small-town America considered safe from the exploitation of children. In 1993, Congress passed the Jacob Wetterling Act, setting up a nationwide registry for offenders convicted of crimes against children. Based in part on earlier publications by the author, this detailed account chronicles the decades-long search for Wetterling and his abductor. Long-overlooked names and information that pointed the way to solving the case are brought to the forefront of the investigation.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"A compelling read...the detailed exploration of the crime, its aftermath, and its ultimate resolution are gripping."--<i>Volume One</i>.<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Robert M.
