The Fog Looked Away
Surviving the Herbert Mullin MurdersBy Frank Coulter
Length4h 49m
About this audiobook
Santa Cruz had always known fog. It softened the coastline, blurred the redwood roads, and made danger feel distant until it stood close enough to touch. In 1972 and 1973, as Herbert Mullin moved through Santa Cruz County, the signs of his escalating instability kept dissolving into the era's background noise: counterculture drift, spiritual language, and the small-town habit of explaining away what felt uncomfortable. Then Lawrence White was dead. Then Mary Guilfoyle. Then Father Henri Tomei. Then whole households, boys in the woods, a man in his own yard.
The Fog Looked Away tells the Mullin case as survivor-centered true crime — not a catalogue of a killer's delusions, but an account of how families, neighbors, police, and a coastal community learned too late that what they'd dismissed as harmless strangeness had turned lethal. How did a town full of people who sensed something was wrong keep losing sight of it until only the survivors were left with what everyone had missed?
