In February 1949, the couple who would become infamous as the “Lonely Hearts Killers” arrived in Grand Rapids, Michigan, where they committed a crime that would bring an end to their cross-country crime spree. Author and history aficionado Tobin T. Buhk returns to tell about the Michigan crimes of Beck and Fernandez as well as other “Cupid Club” killers who, throughout the years, preyed on Michigan lonely hearts through personal advertisements.
