Investigate the mysterious disappearance of my grandparents, Jody and Loren Edwards, aboard their sailboat, the Spellbound, in 1978. This true crime story takes you on a voyage in the South Pacific that began with five crew and ended with two dead and one critically wounded. Even the FBI’s investigation left more questions than answers.
Five people boarded the 53 foot sailboat, the Spellbound, in Kirkland Washington to sail to the South Pacific—six months later there were only three survivors.
This book isn’t just a recounting of events; it’s a personal journey through a family torn apart by a tragedy. Confronted with conflicting stories and unanswered questions, Spellbound offers you a chance to explore and perhaps solve one of the Pacific Northwest’s most haunting maritime murders.
