"Sleeping Dogs: A true story of the Lindbergh baby kidnapping" by Michael Foldes A deathbed confession. A gun encased in concrete. And the possibility both could have kept Bruno Richard Hauptmann from going to the electric chair for the kidnap and murder of Charles A. Lindbergh Jr. When journalist Michael Foldes hears the story of an upstate NY family who could have known the killers, he teases out details in the 80-year-old case that plausibly point to Hauptmann's innocence.

Michael, have you had any chance to look at Foldes’ book? I’m curious to know it has anything serious to contribute, or if it’s just another attempt to exploit the case by jumping on one of the thousands of meaningless tales that were offered up about the Lindbergh baby. It supposedly centers around the deathbed confession of a 95-year-old woman who said she was involved with the kidnapping. If might be helpful if we knew her name. Foldes’ book is only available on Kindle, which I don’t have.

Like you, I haven't a Kindle so I don't have it. I am anxious to hear what someone who has read it thinks too.
