Dear Mr. Gallagher,

I hope that this email finds you well. My name is Brandon, and I just wanted to message you to tell you how much I enjoyed reading two of your books: Arsenic in Assinippi and Murder on Broadway. I know that this is a common saying in praising a work, but I could not put them down! I went from one novel to the next without a moment’s break. The way that you form the historical aspects, namely the legal cases, court proceedings, and local events, alongside the more personal explanations of how the events occurred, the people’s emotions and reactions, and the more domestic back stories leading to the cases, allowed for me to appreciate these stories all the more. Although these books are based on fact, much of the time, when someone is reading about such topics, they forget that these are accounts of real events. Your books do a wonderful job of grounding themselves in historical truth, reminding the reader that these are not just fictional tales, and that, as unfortunate as some cases may be, they are important and close to home. Last, I want to express my appreciation to how thorough these books are in their details and descriptions. Truly, it demonstrates how much time and research must have gone into each person’s story.

I am lucky to say that I have signed copies of both of these books, as my parents, right before Christmas, went to one of your signing events -knowing how much I appreciate signed copies of books- in Hanover. I was so excited to read them when I opened the present, and I am so glad that I did. I now feel as though I have a stronger connection to the town in which I grew up (Weymouth) and the surrounding area.

Best regards,
Brandon Wencek
