In the lawless frontier of 19th-century Minnesota, a shocking series of crimes rocked the small township of Ward and East Ward in Todd County, setting off a chain of events that blurred the line between justice and vengeance.

An Atrocious Affair is a gripping account drawn from the actual newspaper reports of the time, chronicling a brutal double murder, the swift arrest of two brothers, and the chilling execution of vigilante justice that followed. Part crime chronicle, part historical narrative, An Atrocious Affair paints a haunting portrait of a town gripped by fear, an outlaw family who met their fate, and the dark side of frontier justice. A must-read for history enthusiasts, true crime aficionados, and those captivated by the untamed past of rural America.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
