nursenell's review against another edition
4.0
I enjoyed this book, both because I love St. Paul history and I'm interested in the Lindbergh kidnapping. My father was questioned in the Lindbergh kidnapping because he and his brother-in-law were parenting my father's nephew after the death of the baby's mother, my Dad's sister.
The story is about a kidnapping of a newscaster's baby. The kidnapping is modeled after the Lindbergh kidnapping and is predicated on Bruno Hauptman having had a female accomplice who is still alive. Some parts of the book involve a stretch of imagination but overall it was a good story.

This book was a quick read, which incorporated a story of a child’s kidnapping with that of the famous Lindbergh baby kidnapping. If you enjoy the suspense of reading about crimes, you will enjoy this.
Rick Beanblossom and his wife Andrea are reporters in Minnesota. Their young son is taken from their home one evening, and the couple soon discovers someone is recreating the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby. Like the Lindberghs, the Beanblossoms decide to take the investigation into their own hands in order to get their son back.
The story is fast moving. It does jump back in time to tell the story of Grover Mudd, who was a reporter trying to discover the truth of the Lindbergh kidnapping.
