Did she kill him? : a Victorian tale of deception, adultery and arsenic [cd talking book]
Colquhoun, Kate, 1964-2014
Audiobooks
In the summer of 1889, young Southern belle Florence Maybrick stood trial for the alleged arsenic poisoning of her much older husband, Liverpool cotton merchant James Maybrick. 'The Maybrick Mystery' had all the makings of a sensation: a pretty, flirtatious young girl; resentful, gossiping servants; rumours of gambling and debt; and torrid mutual infidelity. The case cracked the varnish of Victorian respectability, shocking and exciting the public in equal measure. 'Did She Kill Him?' is Kate Colquhoun's absorbing account of addiction, deception and adultery at the very heart of Victorian society.
