Zustand: Hervorragend | Sprache: Englisch | Produktart: Bücher | Summer Alexis Shipp never went anywhere without a cup of coffee in her hands. When her friends found her car that day, they were not surprised to see her mug locked in the car.

They had all worried about her door-to-door marketing job and the research that took her to some dangerous neighborhoods.

They organized a media blitz that included billboards, signs on taxis and appearances on nationally syndicated television shows like Nancy Grace and America's Most Wanted. The search for Summer Shipp captured the attention of an entire city-indeed a nation. Until it didn't. Until Summer's case went cold.This is the true story of a loving daughter's relentless determination to find her mother and to bring her justice. This true-crime tale outlines the agonizing search for a body, the eventual discovery of her remains and the trial of her accused murderer almost a decade afterwards.
