The Murder of Genevieve Zitricki, the Yogurt Shop Murders, and Serial Killer Robert Eugene Brashers: First Person: Lieutenant Tim Conroy of the Greenville Police Department

For many of us, our first foray into the world of the art of detection came as we followed the footsteps of Sherlock Holmes. Reading the stories of the great detective's adventures with Dr. Watson may have been what turned some of us into life long lovers of mysteries-- both fiction and the real life variety. One of the best modern writers about Sherlock is Nicholas Meyer. His first novel about the great detective-- the Seven Per Cent Solution-- was published back in 1974 and related the until then unchronicled tale of how Sigmund Freud helped Holmes overcome his addiction to cocaine. It was later made into a film. Since then, Meyer has continued to periodically revisit Holmes, writing several more engaging tales about the detective.And now he is back with another Sherlock Holmes story-- though all of them have been wonderful, this new one is probably his best. Sherlock Holmes and the Telegram from Hell spells out the fascinating and heretofore untold story of a crucial secret mission Holmes and Watson undertook in the United States during the first world war-- at a time when America was not yet involved in the conflict.

On June 3, 2011, in the city of Bloomington, Indiana, 20-year-old Indiana University student Lauren Spierer went out on the town. She never returned. Over a decade later, she has still not been found. Her family still waits on answers. For years, rumors and speculation have persisted about Lauren encountering a predator, centering killers like Daniel Messel and Israel Keyes. That all requires a stranger to have abducted Lauren within a very small window of time, while also somehow contriving to fail to appear on any surveillance footage. More salient questions remain around the young men who were last known to be around Lauren. Young men whose stories remain vague. Jay Rosenbaum, Lauren's friend. Corey Rossman, Rosenbaum's neighbor who was out with Lauren when she was visibly intoxicated. Michael Beth, Rossman's room mate who says he interacted with Lauren that night. Shawn Cohen was one of the first reporters on the case. Recently, he came out with a book on the case: College Girl, Missing. This book doesn't just recount the anguish of this infamous missing persons case. It dispels misinformation and moves the story forward. See, Cohen strived to track down the young men at the heart of the case, including Spierer's boyfriend Jesse Wolff. He even got some of them on the record. His book is a compelling look at a case that has long haunted both Bloomington, Indiana, New York's Westchester County, and beyond.
