About this listen

 Journey back to 1865 and into the bustling heart of San Francisco. Our story begins with the innocent and beautiful Ellie Fenwick, who stumbles upon a shocking scene one morning. A gunshot rings out from a gambling house, and two men emerge - one lifeless on the pavement and the other, the dashing Johnny Montgomery, a familiar face from a past dance, clutching a smoking gun. This harrowing event thrusts the well-to-do Ellie into a whirlwind of prison cells and high-stakes courtrooms, where Johnnys life hangs in the balance and her testimony could turn the tide. As the murder trial unfolds, were left to wonder about the enigmatic Spanish Woman, who resides in a grandiose house and boasts of having influential friends. What role did the other patrons of the gambling house play? And why do Ellies father and his attorney friend engage in hushed discussions? In this riveting tale, nothing is as it first appears...
