Book Description:
The
unsolved Hall-Mills murder case of 1922, trial 1926, was the
true-crime sensation of its day. "Fatal Tryst"
tells the story, examines the evidence, and proposes a likely
solution--one far more plausible than the one suggested in the
most notable previous book on the subject, "The Hall-Mills
Murder Case" (1964) by William M. Kunstler.

About
the book:
"The
'pig woman' is one of the weirdest characters in all the weird
cast that will assemble tomorrow to begin the mystery play.
It includes the aristocracy of New Jersey and the skulkers of the
back alleys of small town life. It is such a cast as David
Belasco might revel in."
- Damon Runyon
"In business houses, on the street
corners, in the lobbies of hotels, in drawing rooms, in kitchens,
(the Hall-Mills trial) is practically the sole topic of
conversation. For the time being every man, woman and
child in the land is turned into temporary detective."
- Dorothy Dix
"Where the Rev. Mr. Edward W. Hall and
Mrs. Eleanor Mills lay murdered there is now a row of neat brick
and stucco houses. The famous crab apple tree under
which the bodies were found disappeared the first weekend after
the murders. It was hacked to pieces, roots and all, by
souvenir-hunters."
- James Thurber
