This book, the second in a series of Crime Stoppers appeals,
focuses on the plight of missing people and their families. There
are rewards totaling almost $3 million for the more than 350
randomly selected cases from across North America in this book.
Some of those who vanished were obviously abducted while others may
have made a conscious decision to deliberately leave. It's also
likely that some missing individuals were targeted for murder while
some are possibly the victims of human trafficking gangs. Families
of missing people are left with a void and many unanswered
questions and hopefully some of those reading this book will have
information that they can provide to law enforcement agencies or
Crime Stoppers that will help reunite the missing with their loved
ones. Among the cases in this book is a newborn who was stolen from
a Florida hospital; a mother who disappeared while working as an
escort in a quiet Colorado community; a man in Stanton County,
Kansas who vanished after going to his ex-girlfriend's home to pick
up his five-year-old son; a Canadian businesswoman who went missing
while vacationing in Hong Kong and the millionaire granddaughter of
motion picture legend Tyrone Power, who hasn't been seen since
moving into a New Orleans flop-house while trying to experience
what it was like to be poor. This book gives a face to people who
are missing and the author hopes details of the cases will help
people recall information that will assist investigators to find
some of these individuals.
