Geraldine Book was 91 when she was found dead in Albuquerque, New Mexico, on January 26, 2010. Authorities labeled her death a homicide and opened an investigation, but the case record and contemporary coverage offer few public details about the circumstances of her death.

Local reporting at the end of 2010 listed her among Albuquerque’s unsolved homicides, noting detectives continued to follow leads though no arrests or suspects were publicly named.

Her case remains one of several from that period that still carries unanswered questions about how and why she was killed. Anyone who knew Geraldine, her movements, or has information relevant to this homicide is asked to come forward.
