On February 13, 2017, two Indiana teenagers, Abigail Williams, 13, and Liberty German, 14, went for a walk in the woods near the abandoned Monon High Bridge.

They never returned home.

Their bodies were discovered on Valentine's Day morning, sparking a torrent of news coverage and social media speculation that engrossed the attention of people around the world.

A grainy photo of the suspected killer walking across the bridge and a chilling cellphone recording of his voice saying "down the hill" captured the public's attention. Numerous possible suspects were brought to the attention of the authorities but dismissed, leaving everyone wondering who could have committed such a heinous crime.

Author Nic Edwards, host of the wildly popular True Crime Garage podcast, was fascinated by the case and for years conducted his own extensive research and commentary. As such he was able to dissect the investigation that included an extensive list of possible suspects, such as a hatchet-wielding lunatic, a kidnapper with unusual tattoos, a murderous pastor, a rapist, and a father and son catfishing team.

Then in late October 2022, local pharmacy technician Richard Allen was charged with the murders. His arrest raised multiple questions about how he was able to evade law enforcement for so long and what motivated him to commit such a horrific crime.

In THE DELPHI MURDERS: The Quest To Find ‘The Man On The Bridge’, Edwards and his bestselling co-author Brian Whitney (YOU HAVE A VERY SOFT VOICE, SUSAN) provide a detailed account of the investigation from the day the girls’ bodies were found to the events leading up to Allen's arrest, and unique insight into the minds of the killer and those who worked tirelessly to bring him to justice.

    Nic Edwards is half of the popular True Crime Garage Podcast which averages close to a million weekly listeners from around the globe.

    In 2019 Nic was one of the founding board members for an Ohio nonprofit organization called The Porchlight Project, formed to lend special help to cases of abduction and murder that have gone cold. The Porchlight team provides free private investigative services, funding for DNA testing, and media support for several Ohio cold cases every year.

    In 2020, because of Porchlight’s efforts and working with the Cuyahoga Falls Police Department and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation, an arrest was finally made in a cold case homicide from 1987. That same year Porchlight was successful in giving a name to unidentified remains found in New London, Ohio back in 2016. The bones were determined to belong to a schoolteacher who died in 1881. This is one of the oldest Genetic Genealogy cases in the state’s history. Porchlight continues to work on several Ohio cold cases and sees success in getting answers for families and communities.

In-depth overview
A very deep dig into this horrendous murder case. A very open minded look into the day it happened and into the investigation. Nic looked into this with his genuine heartfelt compassion. It doesn’t give the feel of glorifying the violence nor does it feel disrespectful to the victims and the family. I highly recommend.

5.0 out of 5 stars The case of Abigail Williams and Liberty German
Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2023

Brian Whitney and Nic Edwards write about the murders of Abigail Williams and Liberty German in THE DELPHI MURDERS: The Quest To Find The Man On The Bridge. I am a fan of true crime stories. I've read books from Author Brian Whitney before, and this book was well written, and gave some depth to the story. I think I read it at just the right time, as every time I read a true crime book, I look up more information about the case, to see if there has been any developments. And in this case, there were more developments than in the book, and it seems that court documents claim that the young girls were killed in a pagan cult, but that's according to the defense. There seems to still be a case while it is in court, and what is going on. It's called the Delphi murders because the girls went missing after going for a walk, in Delphi, Indiana. Their bodies were found near the Monon High Bridge trail in the Delphi Historic Trails. The book starts from the beginning, and goes through the motions of where the investigation went, especially in different directions, and there were different suspects, but that's how an investigation will go. The case is now in court, and I will be following it. My heart goes out to the parents of these young girls, as it is always disheartening to discover such a case. THE DELPHI MURDERS: The Quest To Find The Man On The Bridge is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews. I read this book to give my unbiased and honest review. I look forward to reading many more titles by this author. Amy's Bookshelf Reviews recommends that anyone who reads this book, to also write a review.

I have followed the February 2017 murder of two young girls, Abby Williams and Libby German, from Delphi, Indiana from the beginning. I was so glad to see a book published about this tragic case. This book is very well researched and well written. I learned a lot about the case that I had not read before as well as other unsolved cases that were discussed. If you are a True Crime fan, you will love this book which I highly recommend.

3.0 out of 5 stars No Verdict
Reviewed in the United States on September 12, 2023

Brian Whitney and Nic Edwards have written an incomplete report on the Delphi Murders. In addition the publisher must have had little experience dealing with subjects similar to this one. Why would an editor, publisher or author want to publish an account of an actual murder investigation before the trial of one arrested for the murder. Edwards seems to be the main culprit here and he takes the opportunity expound and preach re: his personal views on child murder, Bible teachings and other unrelated criminal activity. It was a great disappointment to wade through all of their verbiage only to find at the writing there had been no verdict, no trial, no conclusion. I would suggest you not read this book if it’s free.

5.0 out of 5 stars Unravel the Mystery of The Delphi Murders
Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2023
Verified Purchase
I recently read The Delphi Murders by Nic Edwards and Brian Whitney, and I have to say, I was thoroughly impressed. The book chronicles the 2017 murders of Abby Williams and Libby German, two teenage girls who were tragically killed while hiking in Delphi, Indiana. The authors do an incredible job of providing a detailed and thought-provoking analysis of the case, from the initial investigation to the ongoing search for the killer.

What I appreciated most about this book was how the authors provided a human perspective to the case. They included interviews with family members and friends of Abby and Libby, as well as law enforcement officials and other experts who shed light on the intricacies of the investigation. This made the book a gripping and emotionally resonant read, and I found myself fully invested in the case and the search for justice.

Another aspect of the book that I enjoyed was how the authors presented different theories and scenarios regarding the identity of the killer. They provided a balanced and objective analysis of the evidence, while also leaving room for readers to draw their own conclusions. I found this approach to be refreshing and engaging, and it kept me hooked until the very end.

Overall, I highly recommend The Delphi Murders to anyone interested in true crime, or anyone looking for a well-researched and compelling read. Nic Edwards and Brian Whitney have done an outstanding job of honoring the memories of Abby and Libby while shedding light on a case that has captivated the nation.

2.0 out of 5 stars Very little information, much unfocused rambling
Reviewed in the United States on May 31, 2023
Verified Purchase
This "book" came out too early to contain any real information; it's the podcast host "Nic" simply discussing what's known to this point (which is very little, pre-trial) in his usual manner. It reads very much like one of his podcasts, transcribed with little editing. There's a lot of tangential discussion that contributes little IMO.

And as a reminder, this IS the host of the podcast that gave two (or was it 3?) entire episodes to a Delphi conspiracy group that named a completely innocent person as the likely murderer, based on NO evidence, and dragged this innocent person through the mud. I thought it was unconscionable when the podcast did it, and moreso now. This is relevant to the "book" because it shows Nic may not be evaluating evidence very clearly or trying to be objective. Podcasts and "books" are sometimes less documentary and more tabloid entertainment.

So, if you're interested in Delphi, read this, sure. Just don't expect anything very useful or interesting. Sorry

I read this in one sitting. As a true crime groupie I have followed this case closely. There is still so much the public hasn't been told. I'm not really feeling it with Richard Allen. He hasn't tried to hide anything and he hasn't tried to get away. I mean, he voluntarily offered information. I wouldn't think the "real" killer would be that brazen. I do feel it with Kegan Kline and his father, Tony. It will be interesting to see where the case goes.
I would have given the book 5 stars but there are a few typos. Not many, but some. Overall I found the book very interesting, and even learned several new things.

As a listener of true crime garage podcast and a follower of the delphi case since the beginning I had to read this book and it doesn't disappoint. I actually finished it it two days. It accurately gives all the known facts and applies logic and reason to all the previous theories. With some interesting background on the author thrown in.i truly Hope Nic plans on writing more books but most of all I hope Libby and Abby get the justice they deserve.

This book was clearly a passion project for the author. Their personal commitment to this crime and bringing justice for the two young victims shone through. That said unfortunately the writing was clunky, and I found myself reading some passages multiple times to understand what the author was trying to say. I only know a little about this case so I can't comment on whether the book brings anything fresh to the table. It was disturbing however to find out about other crimes against children not too far from Delphi.
