One night when Kate Crane was 12, her father called to say he was on his way home from his trucking business. He never showed up. Kate and her family were left stunned, with no explanation or resolution on the horizon. 20 years later, now a journalist in New York City, Kate reopens the investigation with Baltimore’s Cold Case Unit, tracks down the retired detectives who’d worked Eddy’s case, and chases leads with old friends through her hometown’s dark alleys. Maybe she can find some answers --- or at least a little solace. Part memoir, part true crime, part psychological suspense, WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO EDDY CRANE? is a brilliantly written, emotionally resonant story of searing loss and resilience, of Baltimore, of family ghosts, and the bravery required to confront the past.
