The air hung heavy in the courtroom. The gallery was packed. The people pressed shoulder to shoulder, benches groaning beneath the weight. They all wanted to hear the story for themselves. They'd heard the gossip and the whispers about a family teeming with passion and hate, about a secret nighttime meeting in a garden and a mysterious disappearance, about a discarded knife and a pile of bones found burning in a wine pit. And now they wanted to know what really happened.

But even they were not prepared for the story that came spilling out. The secrets, the lies, the confessions, and the envy so unimaginable. Except it happens to be true. Yes, an unbelievable story ripped from the headlines 150 years ago and dramatized by Wilkie Collins in his novel, The Dead Alive. And now you will hear it too. And judge for yourselves what's true
