THE TWO LOST GIRLSTHE MYSTERY OF THE GRIMES SISTERSBY TROY TAYLOR

On a cold night in December 1956, two young girls mysteriously vanished after a night at the movies on the Southwest Side of Chicago, beginning one of the greatest searches to ever take place in the history of the city. Three weeks later, the bodies of the two lost girls, Barbara and Patricia Grimes, were found on the side of a secluded, snow-covered road, miles from where they disappeared. The discovery of their battered corpses created one of the greatest unsolved mysteries to ever baffle post-war America. Where had the girls been for the past three weeks? Who had killed them? Why could no one determine their actual cause of death?

The discovery of the two lost girls began a criminal investigation of epic proportions, involving hundreds of police officers and detectives, embattled coroners, thousands of potential suspects, eerie confessions, psychics, and puzzling questions that no one seemed able to answer. The authorities believed that the girls had died on the night they went missing, but how could they account for the scores of sightings of them that occurred days and even weeks later? What of the reliable witnesses that saw them or spoke to them in person, or during late-night phone calls? And the biggest question of all why could no one find their killer?

In this chilling entry in the Dead Men Do Tell Tales Series, author Troy Taylor explores this horrifying case and takes listeners step-by-step through the case, pursuing the suspects, and exploring the links between other crimes that may have been committed by the same unknown killer who murdered the Grimes sisters and was never caught. This may be the most unsettling book from Troy Taylor that you've ever listened to!

Great read! Loved this book

Troy Taylor has done it again. He has taken an old, nearly forgotten murder mystery, researched the hell out of it, interviewed everyone still available (still alive), and visited every location. He leaves no possibility unexplored. The sad story of the Grimes sisters is open and still painful and because of Taylor - those young ladies will not be forgotten.
Taylor writes clearly and understandably in an otherwise hard to follow story with many twists, turns, and theories. I love the way his sentences flow and he really draws the reader in. This is a book about a terrible end to many young Chicagoans and the Grimes sisters need their story to finally have an ending.
Mr. Huddleston has a wonderfully smooth voice that is easy to listen to and he uses inflections that keep him interesting to listen too.
