Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Hudson Valley Murder & Mayhem

KINGSTON, N.Y. - July 12, 2017 - PRLog -- Barnes & Noble to Host Book Signing for Hudson Valley Murder & Mayhem

Local author Andrew K. Amelinckx will be available to sign copies of book

The Hudson Valley is drenched in history, culture and blood. In the fall of 1893, Lizzie Halliday left a trail of bodies in her wake, slaughtering two strangers and her husband before stabbing a nurse to death at the asylum housing her. A Jazz Age politician, tired of fighting with his overbearing wife, murdered her and buried the body under the front porch. In 1882, a cantankerous old miner, dubbed the "Austerlitz Cannibal" by the press, chopped up his partner before he himself swung from the end of a rope. Author Andrew Amelinckx dredges up the Hudson Valley's dark past, from Prohibition-era shootouts to unsolved murders, in eleven heart-pounding true stories.
