The summer of 1979 marked the start of the Atlanta Child Murders, when a serial killer began hunting children, taking twenty-nine lives in two years in a case that remains controversial to this day. That year, thirteen-year-old Kim Reid’s life changed forever, along with that of her mother, a lead detective on the investigation.

NO PLACE SAFE is currently in development as a limited-run series for FX Television, to star two-time Emmy winner Regina King. It is being developed by King, Oscar-winning screenwriter John Ridley (12 Years A Slave), producer Michael McDonald, and ABC Signature Studios. No Place safe is the 2007 Colorado Book Award winner in the category of creative nonfiction.

“Though a child herself, Kim Reid sat on the edge of a front row seat to one of the twentieth century’s most bizarre and baffling murder cases. With No Place Safe she delivers her experience as a compelling story told from a sensitive gut and a formidable intellect. A narrative woven with strands of threatened innocence and Southern gothic gives No Place Safe the texture of a modern, urban To Kill a Mockingbird.”
