The scene at Petersen House

[Rhatkinson]

I am sure that most, if not all, here have read James Swanson's "Bloody Crimes". I have just finished it, and thought I might take a moment to recommend one chapter in particular. It is entitled "Bourne by Loving Hands" (obviously after Bersch's beautiful painting, attached) and it is perhaps the most well written description of the scene to and inside Petersen House that I have ever read. The skill of a gifted writer is wonderful when you encounter it, and Swanson's visualization of that sad scene is well worth your time, even for a second time.
