Mysterious Death
The author tells her grandmother's story. When Hattie was a child, her parents went hunting, and a gun went off, killing her mother. Rumors flew around that Hattie's father killed his wife. He was arrested and consequently went to trial. Even though he was declared not guilty, the rumors never completely died away. Jodie shares about the challenges of her grandmother's life and how Hattie eventually eloped at sixteen to escape from her messed up father's home. I just skimmed this book to discover the main details of this story. It was interesting, but I wasn't in the mood for more of an in-depth read.
