Book excerpt: Murder in a lonely place¿Surrounded by swampland, Anawan Rock sits like a brooding sphinx in eerie solitude near a rural stretch of Route 44 in Rehoboth, Massachusetts.Renowned for an event that occurred there during King Philip¿s War--the capture by Benjamin Church of the great Wampanoag field commander after whom the rock is named--the historic spot has long had a reputation for being haunted. But surely it is not ghosts that are responsible for the grisly crime perpetrated there.A week before Halloween the mutilated body of Kenny ¿Mumbles,¿ a lowly character familiar to the New Bedford waterfront, is discovered atop the rock, victim apparently of a ritualistic killing. But what was Kenny, who seldom if ever left the city, doing so far from home? And what is the connection, if any, between his murder and a subsequent killing in the seaside resort of Onset? Or to events that happened in Plymouth Colony more than three centuries ago?The police may be stymied, but amateur sleuth Lena Lombardi--for reasons of her own--is determined to uncover the dark secret behind the two hideous crimes. She will solve this baffling mystery.Even if it kills her¿

Book Synopsis The Trial of Lizzie Borden by : Cara Robertson
Download or read book The Trial of Lizzie Borden written by Cara Robertson and published by Simon & Schuster. This book was released on 2020-03-10 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WINNER OF THE NEW ENGLAND SOCIETY BOOK AWARD In Cara Robertson’s “enthralling new book,” The Trial of Lizzie Borden, “the reader is to serve as judge and jury” (The New York Times). Based on twenty years of research and recently unearthed evidence, this true crime and legal history is the “definitive account to date of one of America’s most notorious and enduring murder mysteries” (Publishers Weekly, starred review). When Andrew and Abby Borden were brutally hacked to death in Fall River, Massachusetts, in August 1892, the arrest of the couple’s younger daughter Lizzie turned the case into international news and her murder trial into a spectacle unparalleled in American history. Reporters flocked to the scene. Well-known columnists took up conspicuous seats in the courtroom. The defendant was relentlessly scrutinized for signs of guilt or innocence. Everyone—rich and poor, suffragists and social conservatives, legal scholars, and laypeople—had an opinion about Lizzie Borden’s guilt or innocence. Was she a cold-blooded murderess or an unjustly persecuted lady? Did she or didn’t she? An essential piece of American mythology, the popular fascination with the Borden murders has endured for more than one hundred years. Told and retold in every conceivable genre, the murders have secured a place in the American pantheon of mythic horror. In contrast, “Cara Robertson presents the story with the thoroughness one expects from an attorney…Fans of crime novels will love it” (Kirkus Reviews). Based on transcripts of the Borden legal proceedings, contemporary newspaper accounts, unpublished local accounts, and recently unearthed letters from Lizzie herself, The Trial of Lizzie Borden is “a fast-paced, page-turning read” (Booklist, starred review) that offers a window into America in the Gilded Age. This “remarkable” (Bustle) book “should be at the top of your reading list” (PopSugar).
