SYNOPSIS: Even though the Newtown, Connecticut, police listed Helle Crafts's disappearance as a routine missing-person case, Keith Mayo, a private investigator knew the Danish-born mother of three hadn't skipped town nine days before Thanksgiving. He had been concerned for Helle's safety a month earlier when he had provided his client, an attractive thirty-nine-year-old Pan Am flight attendant, conclusive evidence of her husband's extramarital activities. An Eastern Airlines pilot and part-time policeman, Richard Crafts stood by his story that Helle had flown abroad on November 19 to visit her suddenly stricken mother. Richard was caught up in a succession of lies. A friend telephoned Denmark to learn that Helle's mother was healthy and unaware of Helle's whereabouts. More disturbing was the news, reported by the Craftses' baby-sitter, that a dark stain "the size of a grapefruit" had been noticed on the master bedroom rug soon after Helle's disappearance; now the rug was gone. Mayo seized upon that single clue, and when it led to a remote landfill from which he unearthed a stained rug, he had the evidence necessary to bring the state police into the case. In the style of a brilliant detective novel, Arthur Herzog skillfully re-creates the hour-by-hour circumstantial details that inform this grisly true-crime narrative. We observe dispassionate Richard Crafts as he buys a truck with a pintle hook for towing heavy equipment, promised for delivery before November 18. A day later he reserves a Badger Brush Bandit woodchipper at Darien Rentals, to be picked up November 18. On November 17 he had picked up a Westinghouse chest freezer from Zemel's T.V. Appliances in Danbury. A few days later an unsuspicious fellow police office spots Crafts operating his equipment at 4: 00 a.m. during a severe storm. When asked why he's using a woodchipper at that hour, Crafts replies calmly that he's cleaning up limbs brought down by the snowfall. "Limbs, " the constable replied. "They must be awfully big." Read on...Arthur Herzog's many best-selling books include The Swarm, which Robert Ludlum called "A fascinating story that rivets you"; Vesco, which Publishers Weekly hailed as "A brilliantly researched story...one of the year's remarkable biographies"; and Earthbound, of which The New York Times Book Review said, "The allure of Jaws...complete with the man-eating shark as the fright of the month." And calling Arthur Herzog "the maestro of disaster, " Vogue said of Heat, "the novel can freeze you in panic."
