In early-1970s Houston, more than two dozen missing teenage boys were dismissed as runaways until Dean Corll, the Candy Man sweet-shop owner, was killed by an accomplice and mass graves revealed his victims. Decades later, forensic anthropologist Sharon Derrick finds a box marked 1973 Murders and works to restore names to the Lost Boys, using prison interviews, advanced science, and years of effort to identify the young men left as bones and unmarked remains.
