The Witch of Delray: Rose Veres & Detroit's Infamous 1930s Murder Mystery (True Crime)

Author Karen Dybis follows the twists and turns of a shocking story, revealing the truth of Detroit's own Hex Woman. Detroit was full of stark contrasts in 1931. Political scandals, rumrunners and mobs lurked in the shadows of the city's soaring architecture and industrious population. As the Great Depression began to take hold, tensions grew, spilling over into the investigation of a mysterious murder at the boardinghouse of Hungarian immigrant Rose Veres. Amid accusations of witchcraft, Rose and her son Bill were convicted of the brutal killing and suspected in a dozen more. Their cries of innocence went unheeded - until one lawyer, determined to seek justice, took on the case.
