WHAT WAS CARVED INTO THE VICTIMS' FOREHEADS?

It was the summer of 1960 and Jackie McCabe was just 11. He and his pal Hugo DeMann were always out for adventure at Lake Maxinkuckee. During a sleepover one night, Hugo urged his friend to sneak out of the family cottage to explore. Several shocking events quickly sent them scurrying home.

A few days later, the boys were hunting for wayward golf balls in the woods next to the golf course. They knew the greenskeeper would pay them enough to buy ice cream cones. But Jackie found something quite horrifying.

In the weeks that followed, dead bodies began turning up around the lake. In each case, the corpses had something macabre and unexplained carved into their foreheads. The police chief and his deputy were at their wits’ end.

When the circus came to town that summer, everyone received a brief reprieve from the terror. Little did they know that the circus helped shape the killer’s demented mind.

It wasn’t long before an FBI detective arrived to help solve these grisly murders. Despite his best efforts, suspects and motives remained elusive. Who could be behind these lethal messages?
