Chapter 1
The Boys on the Tracks

On August 22, 1987, seventeen-year-old Kevin Ives went to spend the night at the house of his friend, sixteen-year-old Don Henry. The two fresh-faced boys with big eyes and smiles, and their hair blow-dried into quiffs, lived in Saline County, Arkansas. The next day at 10 AM, Kevins mother received a call.

Linda, are Kevin and Don with you? Dons dad asked.

No, Curtis, I thought they were with you.

Thats strange. I gave the boys permission to go out hunting after midnight. Havent seen them since, but dont worry, Linda. Theyre OK. Don knows his way around those woods.

Did they take guns?

Of course they took guns. You dont go hunting without guns. Curtis promised to look for the boys and get back to Linda. Having already searched for them at 4 AM, he feared that something bad had happened. Driving around in the darkness, he had encountered a deputy in a police car.

Have you seen two boys?

Who specifically are you looking for?

Wary of volunteering information because the boys had been hunting illegally, Curtis had kept quiet, thanked the deputy and continued his search. After driving around for hours, he had returned home to call Linda.

Alone at home after receiving the call from Curtis, Linda was feeling uneasy. While washing laundry, she wondered where the boys could be. When Kevin had sought permission to sleep over, she had initially said no. Only after calling Curtis who had reassured her had she consented. Convincing herself that Kevin would arrive home at any moment, she resisted calling the police.

At noon, her phone rang. Get over here quick! Curtis said. Theyve been shot and tied to the railroad tracks and run over by a train.

Linda felt her world turn upside down. In a daze, she listened to Curtis, disbelieving anything he said because it was impossible. He must have lost his mind. As Curtis gave directions to his house, she found herself unable to write anything down. In a trance, she trudged next door, and said to a married couple, Call this man and get directions to his house.

Why are we going over there? the woman asked.

I have to go straighten out something about Kevin.

Whats wrong with Kevin?

Curtis Henry said hes been shot and tied to the railroad tracks.

The woman collapsed. Her husband transported Linda in his car. When she spotted Kevins car outside of the house, she knew that her son was OK. As she approached the house, a policeman emerged.

Where are Kevin and Don? she asked.

Why dont you come inside, Mrs Ives?

Curtis said theyve been shot and tied to the railroad tracks.

We dont have any indication that they were shot or tied.

Dons stepmother was inside with Curtis.

What had Kevin been wearing? the policeman asked.

Jeans, a T-shirt, a gold chain, Nike sneakers and socks.

Theres no reason to go to the tracks or to view the bodies. It would be in your best interest to go home.

At her residence, friends consoled Linda. Her daughter arrived. She called the dispatcher at the railroad where her husband worked and left a message for him to contact her and come home.

Larry called. Linda, has something happened to your mom? Is it one of the kids? Is it Alicia?

No. No. No.

Is it Kevin? Did something happen to Kevin?

Larry, I think hes dead.

Ill be home as soon as I can.

As the identities of the corpses had not officially been confirmed, Linda clung to the belief that Kevin was OK. It was all a case of mistaken identity.

Pale and trembling, Larry arrived in a car, which he almost fell out of. Friends propped him up and helped him into the house. For privacy, the couple went into a bedroom with their daughter.

What are we going to do? Larry asked.

Feeling completely helpless, but knowing that she had to be strong for her husband, whom she had never seen in such a state, she said, I dont know, Larry, but well get through this somehow. We can do it.

Throughout the night, Larry sobbed and cried for help. Unable to sleep or to comprehend what was going on, Linda remained numb with shock.

In the following days, the authorities explained that the boys had been fatally run over by a train at approximately 4 AM. Travelling at 50 mph, the train had dragged their bodies for over half a mile. As 1.9 grams of cannabis had been found in Kevins trousers, the police theorised that the stoned boys had either died accidentally or had killed themselves in a suicide pact.

Having raised Kevin to always be aware of trains, Larry doubted the accident theory. Two months earlier, Larry had been the engineer on the train that had now run over the boys. If he hadnt been transferred, he would have seen the tragedy. As for suicide: Kevin didnt suffer from depression. In fact, both boys loved life.

Curtis instinctively felt that the police had missed something, either accidentally or perhaps they were withholding information. If the police had done such a thorough investigation, why had they left Kevins foot out there for two days in plain sight? Dons parents dismissed both theories. Getting stoned didnt drive people to suicide or any such extremes of behaviour.

Curtis asked a friend, a hunter, to examine the tracks. The friend returned dismayed. He had found little blood, which didnt happen at the scene of freshly killed animals. Linda didnt yet know about the lack of blood, but it had been spotted by the medical staff who had attended the tragedy, the train crew and the police. The tiny amount of blood found ten minutes after the impact of the train was purple not red, and the body parts were pale. If the boys had been dismembered, fresh red blood should have been everywhere.
