They searched for, found, and photographed the lifeless bodies of their client's victims and then kept it secret. They did so in the face of unendurable pressure from the authorities and the victims' families, who suspected the lawyers knew more than they were saying. When the American public eventually learned of the lawyers' actions, they were horrified, outraged, and vengeful. People could not fathom how two attorneys-fathers of teenage girls themselves-and supposed officers of the law, could conduct themselves in a manner seemingly beyond any concept of humanity. Today, this landmark legal case is studied and analyzed in law schools worldwide. These events have been indelibly marked in Tracy's mind since he was eight years old; in fact, he was present at the scene of New York state's largest manhunt after the killer broke into Tracy's father's hunting camp in the Adirondack Mountains. In Sworn to Silence, Tracy weaves together a true crime narrative that should rank with some of the most compelling American crime stories of modern times. He does so while taking you-the reader-on a page-turning journey back to the early 1970s, unveiling an American serial killer most people have never heard of.
