A thief, a Killer and an American devil in Grand Canyon
This account traces the case of Danny Ray Horning, from the discovery of a dismembered body in a California river and the forensic work that tied him to the murder, through his armed bank robbery in Arizona, his disguised walk out of a maximum security prison, and the seven week manhunt that forced the closure of the Grand Canyon over a holiday weekend.
