Devil in the Ditch | 5. The Shade Tree

Over 19 days in March of 2018, five package bombs were mysteriously placed or mailed to random locations in and around Austin, Texas — killing two people and seriously injuring another five. 
 
During these mysterious, terrifying attacks, hundreds of thousands of tourists from all over the world would descend on the city for the annual South by Southwest festival, prompting as many federal law enforcement to respond to these bombings as did during the Boston Marathon attacks. On the front lines of it all is the Austin Bomb Squad, who has never experienced anything quite like this in their department’s history. 
 
This is the thrilling, true story of the 19 days of terror that settled over one of the fastest growing cities in the world at one of its busiest times told by the law enforcement, victims, journalists, and residents who witnessed it.
