Aprašymas

Historic Crimes from the Hawkeye State

The 1895 death of Price V. Evans, the brand-new Osage High School principal, sparked a two-month "Was-it-suicide? Was-it-murder?" debate in Iowa. The Cedar Rapids Evening Gazette proclaimed, "there has not been another tragedy in the history of Iowa that has called forth such bitter sentiment and been the cause of so much unseemly and wordy strife." Osage authorities ruled it a suicide--despite being shot three times--while his hometown of Williamsburg declared murder. The Evans case, still unsolved today, leads this deep dive into not just one, but four murders that rocked small town Iowa over the course of a decade. Author Deb Nicklay explores the heart-wrenching, rural cases that gripped an entire state.
