"IF YOU FIND ME DEAD, MY KILLER IS . . . . (Note hidden in boot by Abby Drover) - A young woman collaborates with the journalist who covered her six-month underground kidnapping in this dramatic true story of courage and survival. A true crime classic that made headlines around the world, shocking and moving everyone including some of the biggest celebrities — among them tough guy crooner Frank Sinatra still pained by his own son’s kidnapping a decade before.

Long before the Cleveland house of horrors, readers were awed by this gripping, in-depth narrative of non fiction and suspense — and now you can get the updated, re-titled audio edition with a brand new cover and stunning new revelations.

Trapped, chained and abused for months in her dismal underground cell at the age of 12 and then 13, courageous Abby hides a note identifying her kidnapper. She prays for a miracle — but despairs her fate is sealed.

“If I don't live through this,” says her tear-stained plea, “I would like my body to be cremated and the ashes poured all over my house. PS: If you find me dead, my killer is . . . He kidnapped me on the morning of March 10, 1976. I also died, if so, after my 13th birthday.” Abby then stoically hides this note identifying her kidnapper in the lining of one of her boots, assuming it will eventually be found somewhere along the shoreline together with her lifeless body.
