Summary of Elon Green's Last Call

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 On a moderately warm Sunday afternoon in August of 1988, a turnpike maintenance worker was emptying the green barrels at a rest area in Lancaster County on the westbound side of the Pennsylvania Turnpike. He pulled hard on a plastic trash bag, but couldn’t lift it. He realized it was a loaf of bread, and called his supervisors.

#2 The rest area was little more than a desolate strip of land in the middle of dense woods. The sight was gruesome: an emaciated man with his penis severed and shoved into his mouth. It was not spur-of-the-moment.

#3 The body was peaceful, despite the fact that it had been dead for a long period of time. It did not smell because it had no decomposition. The cause of death was a mystery, as was the man’s identity.

#4 The body was fingerprinted, and the fingerprints were sent to New York, Virginia, and New Jersey. These searches yielded nothing. Tips came in, some of which were heartbreaking. A Lancaster woman wondered if the dead man was her son, missing a month.
