A Killer in the Family

By: Peter Ross Range

Narrated by: Robert McCollum

Bradford Bishop had it all: a beautiful wife, three towhead sons, a nice home in a quiet Maryland suburb, and a promising career in the US State Department. But on March 1, 1976, he threw it all away. After finding out he'd been passed over for a promotion, Bishop snapped. He went home and, in an act of unspeakable brutality, murdered his wife, his three boys, and his own mother - five people in all. Then he vanished off the face of the Earth. Or so it seemed.

Almost 40 years later, Peter Ross Range (author of the best-selling Murder in the Yoga Store) delivers the definitive story of Bishop's life and crime, following the trail from his privileged upbringing in California to his wily escape, including never-before reported details and chilling theories as to where he might be today.

Excellent

This is a very good rendition of this murder mystery. Enough detail to provide good information without overwhelming with legal details. Narrator clear and concise with just enough enthusiasm to keep your attention but not overwhelm the story. Highly recommend this book. And I hope one day they find him.

interesting

this bears alot of resemblance to the John list case but It has slipped me this is a whole other case but it's even more insane thank you for spotlighting it

Perfect

Great synopsis of the case of Bradley Bishop case. Narrator was excellent and captivating, and the pace of the “story” was perfect. Also, I enjoyed that this included speculation, theories, opinions as well as the known facts about the case.

I hate when they don't catch people....

Really wish they would have called him by now it is now 2022 I had actually Google it to see if they call him they still have nstill have not he would be 86. Did find out that a lady took a DNA test because she knew she was adopted and found out he is her father. She'll actually lives in North Carolin

Amazing story

Short but fact-filled, well researched story that I had never heard — which is unusual since I’m a true crime addict.

Can anyone say they actually enjoyed this? I hope not.

Enjoyable? No. Fascinating & well told? Yes.

Hard to imagine how a sane man could do what Bishop did to his family. Was he sick or just a horrible blend of evil & narcissist? I have to believe that whatever became of this man, life after his crimes bore no resemblance to the life he’d hoped to live. That instead of freedom he imagined he’d gain from his twisted actions, he lived a long, lonely, hopeless life on the run full of regret as punishment for his actions, and that every moment of sleep brought with it vivid nightmares of the horror of his crimes.

Okay.

I don't like stories with no ending. This was ok but come on, find this guy.

Great Listen!

I love true crime. I absolutely recommend this one. It's nice and to the point, I also can say I remember this particular crime. I've scene the America's Most Wanted episode, where they had the bust made of what he would look like "today". So that added extra interest for me.
This is a short book of a horrific crime & the monster has never been caught! If your on the "fence" about this one.... Listen to it!

Gripping

This story is gripping, and unnerving. I don't want to spoil the story I'll just say you won't be bored. Very well written and I enjoyed listening. Just not how I wanted it to turn out!!

Only God can forgive

Author takes the reader gently by the hand, knowing that the road ahead is treacherous
