This book is a compelling portrait of a solitary man, his unbelievable existence, and his ultimate capture. He drove to Maine, abandoned his car, hiked into the woods, and lived in solitude for 27 years, without speaking to or touching another human being. In 2013, the thief is caught, and his story is unbelievable: In 1986, Christopher Thomas Knight left his home in Massachusetts without saying goodbye to anyone. Though he remained seemingly invisible, every day his legend grew. Security systems and cameras were installed, but still the thief kept stealing '“ food, clothes, batteries and books from locals. Children were scared to go to sleep at night, afraid of the mythical boogeyman who 'œlived in the woods' and who might break into their homes at any moment. A mysterious interloper robbed their homes repeatedly at random times. For 27 years, the residents of the North Pond, Maine, lived in fear.
