Average Rating: 
Rating: - An especially disturbing case
Johnny Gosch was abducted as a 12 year old paper boy in Iowa at the exact same time as I was a 12 year old paper boy in Iowa. Another Iowa paper boy close in age was abducted (no trace ever surfaced) soon after Gosch, which whipped the issue into a froth that caught the end of my childhood in its wake. Vulnerability and powerlessness is part and parcel of childhood, and that together with the considerable media attention for his case and the similarity of our life circumstances had something of ...

Rating:  - The irony of the reviews
Though I have not read this book, I am intrigued by the reviews. The irony of the comments by southpaw68 and JKM is that their own reviews are riddled with grammatical errors and runon sentences. Those who live in glass houses................
Rating: - REVIEWER JKM = PIECE OF TRASH FROM 2002
Although the book may contain grammatical errors...so what!

Go pour your miserable negativity on people that care JKM. ... Read More

Rating:  - Why Johnny Can't Come Home
If you remember this case from the 1980's and never knew what happened read this book. A mother's account that takes her on a journey in search of her son who disappears from his Sunday morning paper route in Des Moines, Iowa. She finds herself face to face with evil - the kind that a person may only have read about and hopefully will never experience.
Although the author is writing from the heart it is alittle disorganized and tends to jump around - I was left with some unanswered questions. I ... Read More
