Bound in Silence
By Christena Stephens Bound in Silence
An Unsolved Murder in a Small Texas Town
Bound in Silence is Christena Stephens’s investigation of an unsolved 1943 double murder in Littlefield, Texas. Dr. Roy Hunt and his wife Mae were found bound, beaten, and shot. The only witness was their five-year-old daughter, who did not speak about that night for seventy years — until Stephens persuaded her to.
