ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In 1833, a writer named Catharine Williams began working on a new book. She’d published books of poetry and about the Revolutionary War before, but this book was going to be different. It was going to be about a Methodist minister, a mill worker, and a murder. Kate Dawson’s book is The Sinners All Bow: Two Authors, One Murder, and the Real Hester Prynne.
