Casper, Wyoming: 1973. Eleven-year-old Amy Burridge rides with her 18-year-old sister, Becky, to the grocery store. When they finish their shopping, Becky's car gets a flat tire. Two men politely offer them a ride home. Yet they were anything but good Samaritans. The girls would suffer unspeakable crimes at the hands of these men before being thrown from a bridge into the North Platte River. One miraculously survived; the other did not.

Years later author and journalist Ron Franscell - a childhood friend and next-door neighbor to the girls - can't forget his hometown's shocking story of abduction, rape, and murder. Exploring the nature of a small town's memory and the poison of survivor guilt, The Darkest Night races toward a shocking ending. The result is one of the most provocative true-crime stories of the decade, told by one of the nation's finest narrative journalists.

A compelling account of terrible events. Some very interesting sections but a little repetitive and long winded at times. The personal connection with the author added to the story.

The events that happen as time passes never cease to bring us back to the fragility of life. Living next door to a sociopath, it may be easier for me to grasp how their minds work but it does not soften the blow of cruelty. For Ron to return to this part of his life was brave and he did it in a way we feel the pain.

Tragic beyond tragic...insightful...sad...
