David Paulides Missing 411 Series - Wow !! [View all]

My view of the reality of this life changed after reading these books. Paulides was a 20 yr police detective and only gives the facts in these missing person cases. If you haven't read or heard of Missing 411 series, the criteria for him to include a missing person case are: there are no mental health issues involved, no suicides or wanting to disappear, no domestic violence or animal predation is suspected. He only wants to include mysterious disappearances, ie. Search and Rescue people find no trace of the person after lots of searching, tracking dogs pick up no scent or lie down and refuse to track, and alot of times bad weather moves in shortly after the disappearance (obscuring tracks or evidence). I've read 6 of his books and am a changed person after reading them. We are not the apex predator we think we are.
