About this ebook
Now in print for the very first time, full-text transcripts from the leading true-crime podcast!
When Elizabeth Andes was found bound, stabbed, and strangled in her Ohio apartment in 1978, police and prosecutors decided within hours it was an open-and-shut case.
Within days, Bob Young, a 23-year-old football player who’d found his college sweetheart’s lifeless body on their bedroom floor, was charged with her murder. To this day, police and prosecutors still say they had the right guy--even though two juries, one criminal and one civil, disagreed, and Young walked away a free man.
Beth’s case went cold. Nearly four decades later, two Cincinnati reporters re-examined the murder and discovered that law enforcement ignored leads that might have uncovered who really killed Beth Andes.
It wasn’t that there weren’t other people to look at. There were plenty. But no one bothered…until now.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5I really, really struggled with this book. This saddens me as I was looking forward to it. After, having recently read Sadie in the format of a podcast, I was interested in the fact that this book was a podcast as well. Yet, in this case, it did not work. It read kind of clunky. Plus, I was really pissed off by the fact that the authorities were focused on just the boyfriend. Once, they had him, it was like they didn't want to hear or consider any other theories; even if the evidence was not crystal clear. After feeling like I was stopping and going while reading this book and only getting a third of the way. Which by the way took me almost a month to get this far into the book, I was done with the book and put it down for good.
