Kate Crane, "Whatever Happened to Eddy Crane?: A Memoir and an Investigation" (Hanover Square Press, 2026)

Kate Crane's new memoir, Whatever Happened to Eddy Crane?: A Memoir and an Investigation" (Hanover Square Press, 2026) starts when Crane was in eighth grade and her father, a truck mechanic in an industrial neighborhood of Baltimore, left for work and didn't come home. City detectives figured he must have run away, but Kate had a deep-rooted instinct: he must have been killed. Kate, her mother, and her younger sister were left stunned, with no answers, no explanation, and no concrete resolution on the horizon. Twenty years later in New York, Kate is determined to unearth the truth. She reopens the investigation with the Baltimore police department, tracks down retired detectives who'd worked on Eddy's case, and chases leads with old friends through the dark back alleys of her hometown, dead set on finding solace, for her family and herself.  Learn more about your ad choices.
