Palm Beach sells perfection. The county keeps the files beneath it. In *The Palm Beach Files*, J.R. Stranahan follows eight chapters of disappearance, murder, institutional failure, courtroom spectacle, and hard-won accountability. The cases range from the vanishing of Judge Curtis Chillingworth and his wife, Marjorie, to Marlene Warren's clown murder, the Palm Beach investigation of Jeffrey Epstein, the unsolved Town Center killings, Dalia Dippolito's televised plot, the death of Scott Wilson, and the roadside shooting of musician Corey Jones. The final chapter opens six shorter Palm Beach County files involving a missing man linked to Aileen Wuornos, the William Kennedy Smith trial, the Thanksgiving massacre in Jupiter, a disputed police shooting outside a family plant nursery, a murder arranged inside a marriage, and a delivery that ended in a Boca Raton killing. Built from court opinions, official investigations, public records, and contemporary reporting, this is Palm Beach County history told through the people its headlines left behind.
