Overview
Overview
When a new lake moves in, flooding the Delaware River Valley, Lila McCabe knocks on the door of a shack belonging to a reclusive man named Old Nate. She learns about his connection to a local murder mystery. He was a childhood friend of Genevieve Hurley, the 41-year-old Kansas schoolteacher at the center of the tragedy. What's more, he continues to carry a torch for her, decades later. On a cold rainy night in 1923, Jennie, her elderly father and youngest brother were found in the remains of a farmhouse fire. The circumstances surrounding the fire were suspicious. Jennie was engaged to at least two men at the time of the tragedy, and her diamond engagement rings were never found. A week earlier, a woman's body was reportedly stolen from a college dissecting lab. Was Jennie in the fire, or was it someone else? Did she somehow escape? This true crime story was covered in America's largest newspapers on three separate occasions. "When the Leaves Began to Unfold: The Hurley Murder Mystery" is told through the lens of Nate's close friend and a Hurley family member. It is the story of a Kansas pioneer family who suffers one night of tragedy, changing their lives forever.
