On the cold autumn night of October 27, 1961, under dark skies, a 19-year-old college student left a dormitory where she’d been studying biology with friends to return home where her mother was waiting. Only, she would never arrive home. Instead, she would be discovered at 3 o’clock in the morning sitting behind the wheel of her car, strangled with her own bra. This is A Mother’s Nightmare: The Unsolved Murder of Betty Gail Brown.
