A SLAYING SONG TONIGHT

1932 &mdash, The Great Depression lingers on. Hoover is up for re-election. But a small-town murder trial gains national recognition and eclipses the presidential race. Already serving a life sentence for poisoning a state senator, Susannah Lou Packard is now on trial for slitting the throat of a state representative. How could such a quiet, demure, unprepossessing woman execute such heinous deeds? Newspaper reporter Nancy Remington resolves to uncover the story behind these horrible crimes. Through in-depth interviews with Susannah, Nancy pieces together a tale she&rsquo,s certain will win journalistic acclaim, perhaps the coveted Pulitzer Prize. , But some of Susannah&rsquo,s facts don&rsquo,t add up. Are they merely little slips of the tongue, just the simple musings of a misunderstood victim? Or is Susannah hiding something? And will Nancy discover the truth in time?_,
