Book Synopsis
In the early morning of May 30th, 1950, Lillian Chapman, a 72-year-old great-grandmother and popular local babysitter, was found deceased just down the alley from her home in South Clinton, Iowa. Her face was brutally beaten, her neck constricted by her own scarf, and the bottom half of her body was disrobed.
Despite an initial investigation in which more than fifty people were questioned, many of the questions investigators had would never truly be answered. The Chapman Case would become Clinton, Iowa's most brutal unsolved homicide.
75 years later, the question remains:
Who left Lillian Chapman in the alley?
