Well-known columnists took up conspicuous seats in the courtroom. The defendant was relentlessly scrutinized for signs of guilt or innocence. Everyonerich and poor, suffragists and social conservatives, legal scholars and laypeoplehad 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 attorneyFans of crime novels will love it' (Kirkus Reviews).

This ';remarkable' (Bustle) book ';should be at the top of your reading list' (Popsugar).
