It was the '50s and life was simple, until September 25, 1954. That
was the night that would be etched in the memory of the citizens of
Stanfield, Massachusetts. The Chief of Police described the brutal
savagery of the double homicide as "the most atrocious crime in the
history of the city." A fourteen-year-old girl, and the
four-year-old boy in her care were murdered at the hands of a
deranged, depraved killer. A Thread of Evidence places the reader
at the scene of the crime, an eye witness to the senseless stabbing
of two innocent children. With a piece of crochet thread as their
only clue, the entire police department, lead by detectives Steven
Logan and Raymond Gage, scour the city in search of a maniacal
savage. When all tips and leads have been exhausted, they review
all evidence. They come back to the thread. The only real evidence.
With tenacity and perseverance of Logan and Gage the killer is
apprehended. The reader experiences the twists and turns of the
investigation, and ultimately occupies a reserved seat in the
Superior Court as the trial proceedings commence. A Thread of
Evidence has been written as fiction, but inspired by an actual
event. Fifty years later, it remains etched in the minds of all who
had lived in the area. The author has researched court records,
newspapers, interviewed neighbors, police and has drawn on personal
recollections of the crime. The story has been recounted over and
over and to this day, it continues to be discussed. A Thread of
Evidence is a compelling account of superb detective work, and
unprecedented dedication of an entire police department.
