In the mid-sixties, the small, midwestern farm town of Tipton, Indiana, seemed like the safest place in the world. That changed October 16, 1965, when Olene Emberton, a quiet, 17-year-old Tipton High School senior disappeared after a Saturday night date. Two days later, a farmer found her dead body alongside a remote country road, her clothes neatly folded and stacked beside her. Lacking any witnesses, clues, a confession, or even a cause of death, authorities could never solve the case. "Too Good a Girl" author Janis Thornton was one of Olene's classmates, who experienced first-hand the shock of losing a friend in such an unexpected, devastating way. "Too Good a Girl" is presented as part true crime, part oral history, and part memoir, as it weaves together the strands of the tragedy that stunned a community and tore a family apart. Today, more than fifty years later, the mystery continues to confound. And yet, the truth is there, but each reader must determine which truth is the right truth.
