LIZZIE BORDEN

A True-Crime Historical Account

By: Alana Sanchez

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

In August 1892, two people were brutally murdered inside a locked house in Fall River, Massachusetts. The case that followed would become one of the most enduring mysteries in American history.

Lizzie Borden: A True-Crime Historical Account returns to the original record to examine what is known—and what remains uncertain—about the deaths of Andrew and Abby Borden. Drawing exclusively from police reports, inquest testimony, trial transcripts, and contemporary accounts, this book traces the lives, routines, and tensions within the Borden household, the events of 4 August 1892, and the investigation and trial that followed.

This is not a speculative retelling and offers no fictional reconstruction. Instead, it presents the evidence as it survives: the timelines, contradictions, silences, and limits of nineteenth-century forensic science. More than a century later, the question at the heart of the case remains unresolved.

Carefully researched and respectfully told, this account explores how fact, myth, and cultural memory shaped one of America’s most famous unsolved crimes.
