The Grocery Boy

DRC Sponsor: Kim Bonnet

Luther College Professor Emeritus and Decorah resident Ed Epperly will speak to our club about the "Grocery Boy." Is there a mysterious connection between this subject and the events occurring in 1912 Villisca? Find out at this noon meeting.

Decorah Rotarians may recall Dr. Epperly's four-part presentation to the club in September 2024 on his book Fiend Incarnate: Villisca Axe Murders of 1912 and his authoritative investigation over 60 years into one of America's greatest unsolved mysteries. He has written dozens of articles and blog entries, and appeared on CourtTV and other radio and television programs. He is a popular guest speaker at colleges, universities, historical societies, museums, libraries, and book stores.

Fiend Incarnate is a companion to the award-winning documentary feature film Villisca: Living With a Mystery.
