Critically acclaimed author Kathryn Casey delivers a riveting
account of the brutal murders of young women in the I-45/Texas
Killing Fields-a chilling true story that has already helped police
uncover evidence that may link suspected serial killer William
Lewis Reece to some of the heinous crimes Over a three-decade span,
more than twenty women-many teenagers-died mysteriously in the
small towns bordering Interstate 45, a fifty-mile stretch of
highway running from Houston to Galveston. The victims were
strangled, shot, or savagely beaten. Six met their demise in pairs.
They had one thing in common: being in the wrong place at the wrong
time. The day she vanished, Colette Wilson waited for her mother
after band practice. Best friends Debbie Ackerman and Maria Johnson
loved to surf and were last seen hitchhiking. Laura Kate Smither
dreamed of becoming a ballerina and disappeared just weeks before
her thirteenth birthday. In this harrowing true crime exposition,
award-winning journalist Kathryn Casey tracks these tragic cases,
investigates the evidence, interviews the suspects, and pulls back
the cloak of secrecy in search of elusive answers.
