Crime Crackers: Mary Ann Verdecchia & the Martinique Apartments
Welcome to Crime Crackers, a true crime book club like you've never seen before. Instead of discussing one book, we will provide multiple resources about each case. You get to choose how you want to consume the case, then join Liz and other true crime enthusiasts to discuss it and see if we can crack it! Bring along any notes and information that you've found, and let's compare! Registration is not required, but helps us plan in advance.
This month, we will discuss the disappearance of Mary Ann Verdecchia from Pittsburgh in 1962.
