Dusk & Shadow - The Mystery of Beverly Potts

Who stole Beverly Potts? There was too little to remember her by: a patrolman\'s notepad, a few photographs, a pair of pigtails braided with green ribbon, and a baffling mystery that remains unsolved and deeply felt by a family and a community. On August 24, 1951 ten-year-old Beverly Rose Potts left her parents\' Cleveland home a short time before sunset with her best friend Patsy. Just a few blocks down the street, Halloran Park was the scene of a Showagon performance by local singers and performers. Patsy was to be home by dark, but Beverly had permission to stay till the end of the show. That\'s the last Beverly\'s friend - or her family - saw of her. Police worked round the clock, the press had a field day, but not a single trace of the girl was ever found. Nothing. Dusk & Shadow is not a true crime story of madness and the macabre; rather, it s a cautionary tale filled with nagging suspicion, rampant opportunism, deep and abiding sadness, and the lingering crush of irresolution.
