Florence, married with a small boy named Roger, was mourned by her family, friends, while accusing fingers pointed and dastardly rumors swirled about the community. Welcome back. The author did a pretty fantastic job considering it was an 88 year old case with little evidence left behind. I was very engaged in the story - it's hard to put down! Diana's was a fascinating project. Best of MikeOldfield: https://goo.gl/5FqCWf Subscribe here: https://goo.gl/xRrbjs Music video by Mike Oldfield performing Shadow On The Wall.

Perfect combination of interesting story, meticulous research and intelligent writing makes for an entertaining read. Staresinic-Deane does offer some possiblities, and left me with the feeling that it was very unlikely that the husband (the only man ever tried for the crime) could have done this. Collecting his 37th Golden Guitar Award, Troy gave a moving speech about how he had only learnt of this history recently at a men's gathering. Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to review this. Wow, what an interesting story. We’d love your help. On May 30, 1925, Florence Knoblock, in her early 30's, was found dead on her kitchen floor. Start by marking “Shadow on the Hill: The True Story of a 1925 Kansas Murder” as Want to Read: Error rating book. I had to force myself to sit down and read it because it was slow, repetitive and tedious. March 19th 2013 by Aventine Press, Shadow on the Hill: The True Story of a 1925 Kansas Murder. Shadow on the Hill: The True Story of a 1925 Kansas Murder was well written grammatically and the author presents the facts in an unbiased way with just enough dramatic flair. Supplied: Tamworth Country Music Festival, On Saturday Night Country I loved this book! Still it was worth reading. This is a very compelling read, and one you won't want to put down!! This is the only true crime type book I have read, so I wasn't sure what to expect. Many facts were repeated over and over and there was no real resolution. I find it somewhat difficult knowing that the murderer was never found and frustrating that the investigation was handled so poorly. This is a pretty good read. with Felicity Urquhart. A tragic story, but well researched and nicely written. Just a moment while we sign you in to your Goodreads account. Snippets of emails and interviews were interspersed throughout the narrative as a stylistic device and actually moved the story forward, but I found the inclusion of a psychic reading questionable and incorporation of the author's dream journal inexcusable. It's obviously a sincere effort but I confess I'm not a fan of reconstructed dialogue and can't abide when authors ascribe thoughts and feelings to their real-life historical subjects (unless citing a diary entry or something similar). Troy won Heritage song of the year for the eerie Shadows on the Hill, a song that tells of an Aboriginal massacre that happened in the 19th century near Grafton. It is well written and meticulously researched. I generally do not read true crime novels but thoroughly enjoyed this one. These include snippets from newspapers of the time (unclear as to whether they are direct quotes, edited quotes, or paraphrases) as well as interviews with family, recordings from the author's dream journal, and an interview with a psychic. Interesting only because I lived in the area and know some of the family names in the book. Definitely recommend! An interesting account of an old unsolved murder in Burlington, KS. I liked how after every chapter the author included an interview or an email regarding her research on the murder, so it was like the story switched from past to present-day. Well written and thoroughly researched, the only drawback I found was that I would have liked the information about "party lines" to be presented earlier rather than halfway through the book as I. I don't read true crime books usually but made an exception for this one written by a friend and I'm very glad that I did! Refresh and try again. The one thing that's very certain is that there wasn't anything like a satisfactory investigation of Florence Knoblock's death at the time.
