With an eye for bizarre, macabre detail, Keven McQueen tracks down
seventeen true crimes and unsolved mysteries in this collection of
historic Hoosier homicides.
This grim collection of tales includes unimaginable incidents like the
Indianapolis businessman whose car contained suspicious hams and the man
who handed his new bride a drink of carbolic acid. It also reveals the
tragedy of Gary's beautiful Arlene Draves, killed by her football player
boyfriend, as well as a surprisingly comic courtroom revelation by
Hammond's Hazel McNally that cleared her of all charges.
Author Keven McQueen is an instructor in the Department of English at
