The Woodchipper Murder

About this ebook

Even though the Newtown, Connecticut, police listed Helle Crafts' disappearance as a routine missing person case, Keith Mayo, a private investigator, knew the Danish-born mother of three hadn't skipped town nine days before Thanksgiving.. Rita Buonanno remembers the words exactly: "If anything happens to me don't think it was an accident." Helle Crafts was last seen on November 18, 1986.

In the style of a brilliant detective novel, Arthur Herzog skillfully re-creates the hour-by-hour circumstantial details that inform this grisly true-crime narrative. We observe dispassionate Richard Crafts as he buys a truck with a pintle hook for towing heavy equipment, promised for delivery before November 18. A day later he reserves a Badger Brush Bandit woodchipper.

Ratings and reviews

PRODUCT REVIEW-Not A Book Review. Get the 🆓 Sample BEFORE buying! You may need to purchase this book from another ebook site. Google Play copy says "may need zooming". Even when zoomed, it's a terribly difficult to see & read. I don't understand how it can be sold for $10? Pages look like a "Scanned Copy". Font is light, thin & in old typewriter style making it difficult to see. Unable to change page color, font style or font size, can only "zoom", to enlarge entire area. Which means zooming each individual page! Most sentences DO NOT HAVE any SPACES BETWEEN the WORDS. Just words that are squished together, making it completely UNREADABLE! I was excited to read this book and still am; I'll have to check out other formats. This is NOT the high quality which I'm used to, from Google. Be sure to get the free sample prior to buying.
