Maggie’s Revenge
Maggie’s Revenge is a Victorian Era true crime story. Maggie, a beautiful housemaid of Irish descent, was found floating in a small millpond outside the village of Greenwich. With only wealthy and politically-connected men assigned to the coroner’s jury, the investigation into her death was questioned from the beginning. No one was ever charged in her murder. However, five years later a successful businessman from Fort Edward died of TB after giving a deathbed confession to some crime. Over the next two months his three best friends all committed suicide! The way these men died all related to things that happened to Maggie on the night of her death. Maggie’s death is a mystery and quite possibly a ghost story all wrapped up in one. Maggie’s Revenge tells the story that held the regions interest for months. In this case, Palmer is sure he found the murderers 112 years after the act. |

| When the doctor finally accepted that he could not help, he told her assailants, "they could do what they pleased with their victim, he would not give them away." Scully told Mrs. Ecyclesymer that after the doctor gave up on Maggie and drove away, the assailants shoved her body through a back window in the barn and carried her down to the pond where they threw her in. Reviews "I couldn’t sleep until I had put flowers on her grave." Woman who came to a book signing just to tell the author her feelings. - Palmer "Compelling" Channel 6 Cover Story. Dr. Hollis Palmer This is the third historical true crime book I published. As an author of true crime stories I always wonder if I will find another story that is as good as the ones that I have already written. This is especially the case with Maggie’s Revenge. I seriously doubt that I will ever be lucky enough to find a story as compelling and twisted. My readers tell me over and over that they find themselves compelled to visit her grave and leave a stone or a penny. Click here to E-mail Author is available as a speaker.
