Summary

For decades, Nathaniel Bar-Jonah moved through communities under different names, different stories, and repeated second chances. Despite convictions, psychiatric evaluations, and mounting suspicions, he was released back into society again and again. When children began disappearing and disturbing evidence surfaced, investigators were left asking how much had been missed — and how much could never be proven.
