One of the most interesting aspects of the story was whether there was any connection to the murders and two other unsettling events that happened to the small burg of Speedway during the summer of 1978. One was the unsolved murder of a resident as she interacted with visitor in her garage and a number of random bombings throughout Speedway.
The author completely details the grisly kidnapping and murders of the 4 young Burger Chef employers as they ended a Friday night shift. She also does a creditable job providing background and family information on each victim. There are copious characters that readers might have difficulty keeping straight. Thank goodness there is a listing in order of appearance of all those mentioned in the book.
The reason that it is still a cold case in Indiana today is hard to accept for many, even though most immediate family members of the victims are no longer with us. Was it the perfect crime or did the different police agencies responding to the event botch evidence recovery so badly that it greatly hampered progress toward finding the killer or killers? 1970s limitations in forensic technology certainly didn't help the situation. Was it just a robbery gone wrong or was there a direct connection between one or more of the victims and the killer(s)?
