January 1, 1886--New Year's Day
Rural Wayne County Pennsylvania
When the body of thirty-seven-year-old Mike Riley, a local farmer, and new father, was found lying on the roadside, bludgeoned to death with an ax, the residents of the four communities known as Little Ireland were shocked and horrified.
In this sparsely populated area, with no police force, locals would have to solve the crime themselves. and when they finally developed a suspect, it was almost as shocking as the murder itself.
Take a journey back in time in this riveting true-crime account that includes everything from jealousy and brutal murder to an incredible prison escape and a town's loyalty.
Was it possible to solve a crime without DNA, modern forensic science, or even a telephone? Maybe. . .but maybe not.
