Michigan has a dark side, and J.D. Graves dug it up. Monsters of the Mitten unearths the state's most chilling true crimes — the unsolved slaughter of the Crouch family, the Robison murders of Good Hart, the vanishing of Paige Renkoski on I-96, the murder of Frances Lacey, the headless ghost of St. Aubin Street — and the haunted folklore that grew up around them: Hell's Bridge, the Ada Witch, Minnie Quay, and what waits beyond the shoreline. Meticulously researched and told with a storyteller's dread, these nine Michigan stories blur the line between history and horror.
