Bringing Home Adam: The Abduction That Changed America by Les Standiford

The story of Adam Walsh has always been in the back of mind.

I was 2 1/2 when he was abducted. When I was 6, my parents had me sit down and watch the movie that was made about his disappearance in order to make me stay close by while we were out and about.

I didn’t know about this novel until I got an email from BookBub listing it. I bought it instantly. Once I picked it up, I couldn’t put it down.

Finally, knowing the in’s and out’s of the case was mind-blowing. My heart continues to go out to the Walsh family. One can only imagine how those feelings never leave. The things they accomplished for all the children in America, and who knows how far-reaching that really was, is just phenomenal.

The work of the detectives in the case and knowing how many things went wrong, and who killed Adam was not something I ever expected. I do so wish this family had gotten the justice they deserved.

The novel is well written and intriguing. I was just left speechless.
