The Last Science Fair: Inside the Disappearance of Kyron Horman (Still Missing Series 2)
On the morning of June 4, 2010, a second-grader smiled beside his science fair display at Skyline Elementary in Portland, Oregon. By afternoon, Kyron Horman was gone.
The Last Science Fair restores the child behind the headline and follows the search that gripped a city, combed its forests, and has endured for years.
Written with compassion and careful research, this narrative history traces how an ordinary school day became one of the Pacific Northwest's most haunting mysteries. Centering Kyron-rather than speculation-it brings together public records, on-the-record reporting, and voices from the community to show what is known, mark what remains uncertain, and honor the people who refused to stop looking.
Inside you'll find:
A vivid reconstruction of the hours before and after Kyron's disappearance.
The massive search effort-ground teams, waterways, helicopters-and how investigators built and rebuilt the timeline.
The community response: classmates, teachers, volunteers, and neighbors who kept his posters in their windows.
A clear, respectful examination of common questions-without sensationalism or unfounded claims.
A reflection on how to remember missing children with dignity, and why hope remains a necessary practice.
For readers of narrative true crime and contemporary history who care about why cases endure-and the human lives at their center-The Last Science Fair is both a gripping account and a sober reminder: a child's name must never be reduced to a mystery.
