The Book of Cold Case Files: Dead Ends

The 6 darkest unsolved serial killer cases on America’s highways.

Some cases never close.

Six of the darkest unsolved murder cases in American history share one thing in common: the highway gave the killers everything they needed.

Anonymity. Easy victims. And an escape route that swallowed them whole.

Forensic evidence collected. DNA tested. Leads pursued for decades. And still, nothing.

Inside, you’ll follow investigators through cases that went cold, and stayed that way:

The Santa Rosa Hitchhiker Murders. Seven teenage girls vanished along Highway 101 in the early 1970s. One has never been identified. Nobody was ever charged.

The Colonial Parkway Killings. Four couples were murdered on a scenic Virginia road between 1986 and 1989. The killer, or killers, have never been named.
