Reviews

Rounds, a writer, historian, and executive director of the Dyer Library and Saco Museum in Saco, Maine, provides a meticulously researched account of the murder and trial. By no means is this a sensationalistic account.... The author is a compassionate and sympathetic narrator, and she combs painstakingly through the evidence of the murder and the records of the trial... the book is an intelligent, humane account of a horrific incident and its many consequences. -- Kirkus
