The Murder of Dorothy Milliken: Cold Case in Maine

Take a peek!

COVER REVEAL.

This book is about Dorothy Milliken, a young woman who was murdered outside an all-night laundromat in Lewiston, Maine in 1976 and whose case remains unsolved. Dorothy Milliken became a name typed on an index card filed at state police headquarters, her crime scene displayed in grainy black-and-white photos in the evening newspapers. Nearly five decades later, I have examined the cold case, interviewing more than forty people, including Dorothy’s family, friends, former neighbors, law enforcement and forensic specialists. Who was Dorothy? Why has her killer never been found? Did she know her murderer, or was her death due to a random, frenzied attack?

A portion of the profits from the sale of thisbook are being donated to the Forensic Anthropology Identification and Recovery Lab at the University of New Hampshire. The FAIR Lab trains students to excavate, recover and identify human remains.
