SUMMARY:"In Light of All Darkness" with Kim Cross
DESCRIPTION:Paced like a thriller and full of insider information on the 
 history and science of Crime Scene Investigation\, In Light of All 
 Darkness: Inside the Polly Klaas Kidnapping and the Search for America's 
 Child embeds readers in one of the most famous true-crime stories of our 
 generation—the kidnapping of Polly Klaas—a case as pivotal in the 
 history of the FBI as the Unabomber or Oklahoma City bombing.\n\nOn October 
 1\, 1993\, a 12-year-old girl was kidnapped at knifepoint from her bedroom 
 in Petaluma\, California\, during a sleepover with two friends\, while her 
 mother slept soundly in the room next door. This rarest of all 
 kidnappings—a stranger abduction from the home—triggered one of the 
 largest manhunts in FBI history.  \n\nMany Americans remember Polly's 
 face\, which appeared on the national news every night\, on the cover of 
 People magazine\, and on more than 8 million flyers distributed as far as 
 China. The emotional gravity of Polly’s story touched every agent\, 
 police officer\, and forensic technician who worked on her case. Many of 
 these investigators have never shared their stories—until now.\n\nNew 
 York Times bestselling author Kim Cross has written the first comprehensive 
 account of what happened on that fateful night in October\, as well as how 
 the case forever transformed the Bureau’s approach to solving crimes. 
 With unprecedented access to files\, crime scene photos\, a videotaped 
 murder confession\, and inside sources\, In Light of All Darkness follows 
 the investigators who pieced together the evidence that led to the arrest 
 and conviction of the kidnapper—and made the victim a household name and 
 a girl who will never be forgotten. \n\nThis program will be livestreamed\, 
 but a recording will not be available to watch. A book signing with 
 Iconoclast Books will follow.\n\nKim Cross is a New York Times Best-Selling 
 author\, journalist\, and historian known for meticulously reported 
 narrative nonfiction. Her stories have been recognized in “Best of” 
 lists by the New York Times\, the Columbia Journalism Review\, The Sunday 
 Longread\, Longform\, Apple News Audio\, and Best American Sports Writing. 
 She is also the author of The Stahl House: Case Study House #22—The 
 Making of a Modernist Icon\, and What Stands in a Storm: Three Days in the 
 Worst Superstorm to Hit the South's Tornado Alley.
