"The disappearance of Beverly Potts remains unsolved after all these years. Badal's book doesn't solve it, but it made me aware that missing children aren't anything new. People tend to think child abduction is a modern crime, but not so. These same people think the Lindbergh kidnapping was a fluke, an isolated incident (if they've ever heard of it at all) . Badal's book is a ..."

"In 1951, 10-year-old Beverly Potts mysteriously disappeared as she walked a couple of blocks from the neighborhood playground to her suburban home on Cleveland's West Side.

In this book, James Badal takes on another unsolved crime and does his customary excellent job of marshalling the facts ..."

"Here are the known facts outlined in the book: In 1951, a 10 year old girl disappears from a crowded city park less than 2 blocks from her home. There are no eye witnesses to any crime. There is no crime scene. The body of Beverly Potts is never located. There were never any viable leads or credible suspects.I had one, albeit important, reservation prior to purchasing this book. Do the known ..."
