True Crime Investigation: Snake Eyes - Murder in a Southern Town Online

Delve into the dark underbelly of Hot Springs' past with a captivating true crime investigation. Join us as we revisit the chilling case of Cathie Ward, a young girl whose untimely death sent shockwaves through the city. Arkansas author Bitty Martin, a classmate of Cathie's, brings this decades-old mystery to light in her book, "Snake Eyes." She'll share firsthand insights into the case, revealing the sinister figure of Frank Davis and the secrets he sought to bury. As we navigate the twists and turns of this real-life thriller, we’ll delve into the concept of risk. Like Martin, we’re often drawn to stories that challenge us, that make us question what we think we know. What drives us to seek out the truth, no matter the cost? How can we use critical thinking to unravel complex mysteries and uncover the hidden stories that shape our communities? Join us to explore these questions and more. Be ready with questions for the author by borrowing the book from the NWACC Library or ordering a signed copy from the Garland County Historical Society.
