I "sort of" read it. It's basically a detective novel and I don't care for those. I skipped through to the end, but, honestly, I couldn't figure out what the big secret was, probably because I didn't read it very closely.

But, Jenny, you might like the book. The author has an interesting take on Ella Turner. On the other hand, he is very disparaging of Lucy Hale, which irritated me. (To each his own!)

As for the talk on C-Span, I think some members of this forum would have been amused by his remarks about Lewis Powell's mug shots vs. that of George Atzerodt.
