About this listen

Based on a true story from the early 1900s, this work of historical fiction gives life to murderer William Kleeman, a handsome young farmer from Southwestern Minnesota who courts the beautiful Maud Petri. After a quick engagement and marriage, the couple produces four children and is joined by boarder Mary Snelling, who teaches at the country school across the road.

This addictive story winds through many twists before ending in a deadly rampage that results in one of the most notorious ax murders in American history.

This audiobook is perfect for those who love true crime, suspense, and history. Perfect for book clubs and historical societies to discuss.
