A serial killer's victims stayed unfound for decades. Now one of America's most celebrated detectives is reopening the cases — and this time, you'll hear the investigation unfolds in real time.

Finding the Lost Girls follows criminalist Paul Holes — the investigator who helped unmask the Golden State Killer — as he comes out of from retirement to finish the work that haunted him. Years ago, Holes helped put photographer Joe Naso on death row for six murders. But Naso kept a list of ten, and the other cases went cold. Now, with Naso nearing ninety and his health failing, this is Holes's last chance to give the remaining victims their names back.

Recorded, written, and produced as events actually happened, this is a rare real-time true-crime investigation: one of the country's best detectives against one of its most prolific killers, racing the clock can Paul solve these cold cases and bring relief and justice for these women and their families before Naso takes his monstrous secrets to the grave?

Paul Holes unique perspective

Kept my FULL attention through out the entire book. I had not heard of this particular serial killer.

Polished & Thorough Cold-Case Investigation: A California Serial Killer, Still Living

As usual, Paul Holes delivers a well-structured, realistic dive into a (somewhat) very cold case with great narration and numerous original audio interviews or conversations with those “in the know.” I will re-listen to it right now!

Great!

Interesting and important story. Paul Holes is great and both tells the stories and treat the victims respectfully and ethically.

Very interesting

Not something I normally would pick but it was very interesting. I love forensic science

Great listen and important storytelling!

I’ll listen to anything by Paul Holes. Not only is he a great narrator (and I’m picky) but the stories he invests in are important. I enjoyed this story and hope there are more to come. Thank you authors, for giving these victims your efforts-it truly matters.
