Category : Murder
Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
"In the fall of 1889, she was employed as a domestic servant. She was a beautiful nineteen-year-old redhead of Irish extraction. On the morning of October 19th, her body was found floating face down in a shallow pond about a mile from her place of employment. Was it murder or suicide? Why would "politically connected" men allow themselves to be on the coroner's jury? Even more important, why were there only "connected" men on the jury? Why did the doctor who performed the autopsy insist that she drowned when there was no water found in her lungs? Why did the District Attorney assign the case to a local counsel rather than pursue the truth himself? Why did three successful male friends all commit suicide five years after her death? Was it coincidence, bad luck, or was it Maggie's revenge?"--Back cover.
