25 FROZEN, 1 THAWED—Bob Cyphers

25 Frozen, 1 Thawed: Murder and Mayhem in the Midwest takes readers deep into the heart of unsolved mysteries and chilling crimes that have haunted communities across the Midwest.
From small towns shattered by sudden disappearances to cities rocked by violent acts, each chapter brings a different story—twenty-five cases left frozen in time, still waiting for justice. The book explores murders that stunned neighborhoods, kidnappings that tore families apart, and mysteries that investigators chased for years. In these pages, the quiet streets of Missouri, Illinois, and beyond become the backdrop for secrets, heartbreak, and unanswered questions.
But not every case remains locked in ice. One story breaks free—the “thawed” case—where persistence and detail uncovered the truth and shows that even the coldest mysteries can sometimes find resolution.
With a journalist’s eye for fact and a storyteller’s gift for detail, Cyphers presents the lives lost, the families still searching for answers, and the investigators who refused to give up. Rather than sensationalizing tragedy, the book restores humanity to the victims while revealing the lasting impact of crime on entire communities.
25 Frozen, 1 Thawed is a testament to memory, resilience, and the hope that justice may yet be found—even decades later. 25 FROZEN, 1 THAWED: Murder and Mayhem in the Midwest—Bob Cyphers
