I just finished reading the book "Fatal" about the female serial killer in Lizzie's time named Jane Toppan. It took place in Massachusetts, too. The story was extremely interesting, but wasn't treated like Lizzie's. But then, Jane's crimes were solved.

There's a Topic around here somewhere on this subject.
I've been looking. Saw it recently...

Anyway, There is an item about that book in the Hatchet issue August/September, 2004, by Stefani Koorey:
"The Lizzie Borden Connection" page 53. :smile:

Ooh - thanks, Kat! I thought the case was very interesting. The author quoted from newspapers a lot tho. I'd like to read more about her. There must be another book about her somewhere ...
