About this audiobook

On a cold Saturday morning in February 2008, a routine shopping trip in suburban Tinley Park, Illinois, turned into a nightmare that would haunt an entire community. Inside a Lane Bryant store at Brookside Marketplace, five women were murdered during a robbery, while a sixth woman survived after being shot. Nearly two decades later, the gunman has never been identified or arrested.Lane Bryant Murders takes readers inside one of the most haunting unsolved mass killings in the Chicago area. The victims—Rhoda McFarland, Connie Woolfolk, Sarah Szafranski, Carrie Hudek Chiuso, and Jennifer Bishop—were women with families, careers, relationships, and ordinary lives that were suddenly and violently cut short. Their stories became inseparable from a case that investigators have refused to abandon.What happened inside that store? Why did the killer choose Lane Bryant? Was robbery truly the entire motive—or was there something investigators never uncovered? And how could someone responsible for such a shocking crime disappear without leaving enough evidence to bring the case to an end?The investigation generated thousands of tips, forensic evidence, eyewitness information, a composite sketch, and an unforgettable 911 call that captured the killer's voice. Investigators have repeatedly revisited the evidence, brought in fresh investigators, and used evolving forensic and investigative techniques in an effort to identify the unknown gunman. Yet the central mystery remains.But this is more than the story of an unsolved crime. It is the story of five women whose lives deserve to be remembered, families who have spent years waiting for answers, investigators who continue searching, and a suburb whose sense of safety was permanently changed by what happened that morning.
