Synopsis
November 2, 1945 — a fourteen-year-old girl vanishes after leaving for a high school football game with friends. When Thora Chamberlain drives off with a man who says he needs a babysitter, she is never seen again.
The FBI unleashes its top kidnapping investigator, a man who once helped bring down John Dillinger. What follows is one of the most astonishing manhunts in Bureau history. Agents shadow the suspect, Thomas McMonigle, from Los Angeles to his family’s home in Alton, Illinois, and back again—hoping he’ll lead them to Thora. At one point, undercover agents even give him a ride while he’s hitchhiking.
McMonigle confesses to abducting and killing Thora, claiming he threw her body into the Pacific Ocean. But no trace of her is ever found. A convicted pedophile obsessed with teenage girls, McMonigle is sentenced to die in the gas chamber.
Then comes one final twist—when a scientist who claims to have brought dogs and cats back from the dead announces he wants to try the same with Thomas McMonigle.
The Murder of Thora Chamberlain is a gripping, real-life thriller of obsession, pursuit, and the search for truth in postwar America.
