Hand of Death: The Story of Myrtle Bennett

Let us know what you think about the episodeBridge was a national obsession in 1929, and it was the personal obsession of an upper middle-class woman in Kansas City, Missouri. Myrtle Bennett poured over books about how to improve her game. She played whenever she had the chance. Her husband Jack was her frequent partner, but one night during a game, Myrtle and Jack got into a fight that led to a murder. As tragic as it was, it was the reaction from other bridge players that remains shocking.  More about the show:🌐 https://thehistoryofmurder.comTeam & ContributorsExecutive Producer- Clare O'Donohue https://clareodonohue.comExecutive Producer - Margaret SmithEditor – Steph Kellyhttps://stephkellyedits.comSocial Media Manager & Design - Mikayla Bogushttps://mikayladesign.cargo.siteIT Manager - Conor SweeneyThe History of Murder Logo - Bernadette Carrhttps://www.bcarrdesign.comTheme Song “My Carnal Life I Will Lay Down” - Rob Breretonhttps://robertbrereton.com Voice of Myrtle Bennett: Megan GranoInstagram: @meganegranoVoice of James Page: Joe Janeswww.joejanes.netVoice of James Reed: Randy DuncanThis was truly a team effort, and we’re grateful to everyone who played a part.Help keep us around by …. Buying Merch https://buy.thehistoryofmurder.comJoining Our Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/thehistoryofmurder And Supporting Us Directlyhttps://buymeacoffee.com/thehistoryofmurder
