Finding Bethany

"You don't have to have a murdered sister to be a good homicide detective, but it helps."
--Glen Klinkhart

"Finding Bethany"is a behind-the-scenes true crime memoir of murder and justice in the Last Frontier of Alaska.

This is the true story of how he began his journey as a police officer to find the lost, the missing, and to bring those who would do evil upon others to justice. His career as a homicide detective takes the reader along as he travels from the brink of exhaustion and obsession and into the dark and evil world of sociopathic killers, and those who would do anything to help them.

Bizarre twists and turns down dark paths may result in macabre dead ends, but unexpected miracles are often found within the darkest of circumstances. "Finding Bethany" details what real life homicide investigations are like, from Glen's unique perspective as a victim and as a reluctant hero. His cases include the stories of people who were willing to give of themselves for someone they often didn't even know.
