Description
We have seen the news reports of parent murdering their kids including high profile cases like Andrea Yates who killed her 5 kids in their Houston bathtub or Susan Smith...
show moreIn 2009 in Portland, Oregon - AMANDA STOTT-SMITH- dropped her 2 children from a bridge! Her 4 year-old son died while her 7 year-old daughter survived. Amanda was arrested a few hours later and is serving a 35 year prison sentence.
Now almost a decade later and after years of investigation – journalist NANCY ROMMELMANN chronicles this tragedy in the new book - TO THE BRIDGE.
Illustrating the troubled mind behind a crime so unfathomable takes humility and empathy. The book is a delicately balanced piece of reporting that does not try to sway the reader as much as offer a deep and nuanced look into how such a crime can occur, to offer illumination, perhaps even hope of averting future incidents!
Despite its complexity and resolve not to be told, the story of why a mother would seek to kill her children ultimately does reveal itself, in this gripping and important book!
