Lisa Belkin, GENEALOGY OF A MURDER: Four Generations, Three Families, One Fateful Night

Zibby interviews Lisa Belkin about Genealogy of a Murder, a multigenerational tale of three families whose paths collide one summer night in 1960 with the murder of a police officer. Lisa's in-depth research uncovers the intricate interplay of fate, decisions, and history spanning a century. She dives into a myriad of subtopics: motorcycling's popularity in the early 1900s, the concept of epigenetics, prison reform, and the impact of small life decisions. Finally, she hints at a future project and reflects on her past editorial roles.Purchase on Bookshop: https://bit.ly/3FgFfdAShare, rate, & review the podcast, and follow Zibby on Instagram @zibbyowens!** Want more?
