Dannemora: two escaped killers, three weeks of terror, and the largest manhunt ever in New York State: summary, description and annotation

In June 2015, two vicious convicted murderers broke out of the Clinton Correctional Facility in Dannemora, in New Yorks North Country, launching the most extensive manhunt in state history. Aided by prison employee Joyce Mitchell, double murderer Richard Matt and cop-killer David Sweat slipped out of their cells, followed a network of tunnels and pipes under the thirty-foot prison wall, and climbed out of a manhole to freedom. For three weeks, the residents of local communities were virtual prisoners in their own homes as law enforcement from across the nation swept the rural wilderness near the Canadian border. The manhunt made front-page headlines--as did the prison sex scandal involving both inmates and Joyce Mitchell--and culminated in a dramatic and bloody standoff ... Dannemora is a gripping account of the circumstances that led to the bold breakout and the twenty-three-day search that culminated in one man dead, and one man back in custody--and lingering questions about those who set the deadly drama in motion.--Dust jacket flap.

ACKNOWLEDGMENTS

I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the persons behind the scenes who made my dream of writing this book become a reality.

Dr. Calvin Martin, who advised, encouraged, and mentored me along the way. You believed in me!

John Meyer with Cape Fear Publishers in Wilmington, North Carolina. You certainly were the right developmental editor for me! From the time we first spoke on the phone and I shared my idea with you, you were as excited as I was. Your willingness to visit the North Country and your fresh set of eyes proved to be so incredibly valuable. Your experience, hard work, and talent helped me to achieve my goal. There is a part of you in this book. Additionally, your contacts with fellow editors provided me with a chance to pitch my idea to a great agent. I will be forever grateful.

To my agent, Kevin OConnor, of OConnor Literary Agency in New York. From our first conversation until now has been a whirlwind. There has been a barrage of phone calls, emails, and deadlines. You secured a publisher for me before we really had time to get to know each other. Somehow, I dont think thats the way this normally works. Thank you for your guidance, assistance, advice, and making my dream a reality. I know I am truly lucky to have this opportunity.

To Michaela Hamilton, my editor at Citadel Press, Kensington Publishing. Thank you for believing in this project and allowing me to tell this story.

To my beautiful wife, Penny, who was my computer IT consultant, typist, proofreader, and biggest supporter. Thank you for your patience in putting our life on hold so that I could achieve this goal. I never could have accomplished this without you and I promise you that your honey-do list will get done. Thank you for the endless days and nights of hard work. Love you.
