| Publisher Description: Book 1 -- At twilight, Saturday, 8/23/1924, two sisters disappeared and were missing for months near the Baldwin Hills of Los Angeles. Court records reveal a jailhouse snitch and a woman with something to hide probably framed S.C. Stone, the neighborhood night watchman, for the murders of Nina Martin, only 8-years-old, May Martin, just turned 12. Many Los Angeles citizens were sure he was innocent and fought against his execution. Even the sisters' mother did not believe the evidence against Stone. Did a child killer remain free to kill again in 1931 and 1937? The crimes were within blocks of each other, as was where the body of the Black Dahlia was found. Is there a connection? |
