Hemlock on the Rails

In the grime-choked railroad town of Mercer’s Bend, 1954, Evelyn Voss wears the guise of a flawless wife. Beneath the starched aprons and soft prayers festers a jealousy so absolute it demands no prize—only annihilation. When a younger widow with laughing eyes catches her husband’s gaze, Evelyn orchestrates a slow murder using the railroad’s own poisons, turning the law, the company, and every man who underestimated her into pawns in a revenge that proves envy is the one sin that feasts on its own heart.
