It was one of the bleakest times in US history, the Great Depression. People were desperate, some to believe neighbors would help each other while others were desperate to claw their own way to survival, no matter the cost. High in the Cascade Mountain Range, a destitute family and a man using all his wiles to save himself from a similar fate crossed paths. The results were destructive and deadly.The Grimm family, author Michael Grimm's own ancestors, befriended a seemingly harmless drifter. In the months that followed, the family found no peace but was instead tormented by him. His eventual prosecution received national attention.The Grimm family still carries the scars of those events. As a forensic scientist for four decades, Grimm knows first-hand not only the generational pain of such an event but the research behind such pain. Tell Edith Goodbye: A True Crime Story of Depravity and Obsession During the Great Depression reminds us that regardless of who you are and where you live, horrific things can occur without provocation.
