"Carol Dawson couldn't let Shelley Watkins's death go unsolved. Dawson dug into the dark recesses of her Texas hometown and dredged up its secrets. She chased witnesses, dispelled rumors, and uncovered some upsetting truths. A page-turner and a must-read for true-crime fans, The Labor Day Ghost is also the story of what happens when one woman refuses to stop asking questions." - Kate Winkler Dawson, author of American Sherlock: Murder, Forensics, and the Birth of American CSI
