One of the absolute best books written on the Lindbergh kidnapping case Tom Wescott One of the absolute best books written on the Lindbergh kidnapping case. The author is magical in how he takes a seemingly dry narrative of a scientist and a ladder and turns it into a compelling detective story that you can't put down. If you have even a slight interest in the Lindbergh case you must put this book at the top of your list of books to read.Tom WescottAuthor of The Bank Holiday Murders: The True Story of the First Whitechapel Murders. Interesting but too detailed during the trial. Interesting at first but during the trial the detail seemed to repeat and go on and on.
