Johnson and his kid brother Eddie grew up in the suburban woodlands
near a large lake in a quiet New England town north of Boston. They
played together, survived the jocks and bullies and popular kids in
school, and later fought the enemy in Vietnam.
But as the brothers struggle with realities of the grown-up
world, thirty-seven-year-old Eddie vanishes one day from his desert
home in Tucson, Arizona. Is his exile a self-imposed attempt to
hide from life's mounting troubles, or is he quietly looking for a
better life? Or worse, is foul play involved?
Johnson spends the next seventeen years searching for Eddie with
the help of three police forces in two states, private
investigators, and an army of family members and friends. One cool
November morning, Johnson receives a phone call that finally
answers many of his questions.
Based on real-life events, "Looking for Eddie" is a touching
story of two brothers growing up in idyllic surroundings that
eventually steer both men in different directions, where one meets
his final fate, and the other changes his.
