In a small, peaceful southern town, where neighbors knew each other by name and crime was virtually unheard of, the discovery of a brutal murder sent shockwaves through the community. The victim, a young woman known for her warmth and kindness, met a chilling demise that has left residents haunted and searching for answers.

The incident occurred late one summer evening, when the town was wrapped in an eerie stillness. The locals, accustomed to a safe and secure environment, had no inkling of the tragedy that was about to unfold.

The victim, Emily Thompson, was a bright and outgoing woman who had recently moved to the town to start a new life. With her infectious laughter and vibrant personality, she quickly became a beloved member of the community.

On the night of her murder, Emily was seen enjoying a casual dinner with friends at a local diner. Little did anyone know that it would be their last time seeing her alive. As she left the diner and made her way home, darkness loomed in the shadows.

Investigators believe that Emily's path crossed with a dangerous individual known as "Snake Eyes," a notorious criminal with a menacing reputation. With his cold, calculating eyes that sent shivers down the spines of even the bravest souls, Snake Eyes was a figure of pure terror in the town.

It is said that Snake Eyes had been targeting young women in the area, preying upon their innocence and vulnerability. His modus operandi was to strike fear into their hearts before delivering the final blow. The police had been tirelessly working to bring him to justice, but he always seemed to slip through their fingers.

On the night of the murder, witnesses reported seeing a figure lurking in the shadows near Emily's house. The mere silhouette of this menacing individual struck fear into their hearts, leaving them paralyzed with terror.

As the days turned into weeks, the community united in grief, vowing not to let the memory of Emily fade away. Mourners came together to hold candlelight vigils, praying for justice to be served and for Snake Eyes to be caught before he could claim another innocent life.

The local police department, faced with mounting pressure, launched an exhaustive investigation. They meticulously combed through the crime scene, analyzing every scrap of evidence in search of the elusive killer. Tensions ran high as rumors spread and suspicions fell upon familiar faces.

While the investigation continues, the town remains vigilant, fearing the unknown and struggling to return to the peaceful existence they once knew. Children are watched more closely, doors are locked with an extra dose of caution, and the darkness of night carries an unshakeable unease.

But amidst the fear and uncertainty, there is a glimmer of hope. A dedicated team of detectives is working tirelessly to bring justice to Emily and provide closure to the community. They vow to hunt down Snake Eyes and ensure that he is held accountable for his heinous crimes.

The story of Snake Eyes and the murder of Emily Thompson serves as a chilling reminder that evil can lurk in the most unexpected places. It serves as a call to action for communities to remain vigilant, to look out for one another, and to never underestimate the darkness that can exist beneath a seemingly idyllic surface.

As the search for Snake Eyes continues, the town grapples with grief, loss, and the stark reality that their once peaceful haven has been shattered. They mourn the life of a young woman who possessed a contagious zest for life, and they pray for justice to be served, ensuring that Emily's memory lives on.

In a world where monsters exist, the courage to face them head-on becomes paramount. For the residents of this southern town, their journey towards healing, justice, and reclaiming their sense of security has only just begun.

By 1966, Hot Springs, Arkansas wasn’t your typical sleepy little Southern town. Once a favorite destination for mobsters like Al Capone and Lucky Luciano, illegal activities continued to lure out-of-state gamblers, flim-flam men, and high rollers to its racetracks, clubs, and bordellos. Still, the town was shaken to its core after a girl was found dead on a nearby ranch. The ranch owner claimed it was an accident. Then the rancher was found to be the killer of another woman – his fourth wife.

The story begins when 13-year-old Cathie Ward was found dead after horseback riding at Blacksnake Ranch on the outskirts of Hot Springs, Arkansas. Frank Davis, the owner of the ranch, tells authorities Cathie’s death is an accident. He claims her foot caught in a stirrup and she was dragged to her death despite his pursuit of the runaway horse. People who know the 42-year-old skilled horseman don’t believe his story, and soon rumors of her rape and murder begin swirling around town.

The rumors reach a crescendo after Davis viciously guns down his fourth wife and mother-in-law in broad daylight outside of a laundromat. Davis is arrested and charged with first-degree murder. Soon after, Hot Springs authorities re-open the investigation into Cathie Ward’s death.

Snake Eyes is the first book to examine this decades-old murder and cover-up, and the only in-depth account of the man who would become the town’s most notorious villain. Featuring personal interviews, crime scene records, court documents, and Davis’ own prison files, author and lifelong Hot Springs resident Bitty Martin reveals the true story for the first time.
