About the Book
At the Trial of the Century in 1935, Charles Lindbergh buried the truth and the spirit of a young prosecutor. Fifty years later, both came back. Lindbergh's Shadow is a tale of two murder trials linked to the 1932 kidnapping of Lindbergh baby. William Gottschalk, a rising star in the New Jersey Attorney General's Office, has just been assigned to prosecute Richard Bruno Hauptmann for the kidnapping of the Lindbergh baby. Gottschalk investigates the case with the unsolicited help of the FBI's first black agent and is led down a path of self and reasonable doubt about whether the State is prosecuting the right man. Destroyed personally and professionally when Hauptmann is convicted, Gottschalk disappears for fifty years, lurking around the courts as a buffalo. He is lured back to the limelight by a case with eerie parallels to Lindbergh matter, including the appearance of a missing ransom bill. Up against the State's best trial attorney and first female head of homicide, Gottschalk must conjure a defense for an enigmatic Burmese man who refuses to share his secrets. Flying blind, Gottschalk has no choice but to trust that justice will not elude him a second time.
