Before Mountain Meadows, there was blood in Arkansas. This is the wild, tragic, and shockingly true story of the Mormon apostle murdered over a love triangle, the woman caught in the crossfire, and the ripple effect that helped ignite one of the darkest moments in American frontier history.

Great job on the Pratt-McLean background ! Your mailbag episode on Edward Robinson was especially eye-opening since I am related to him. The only thing we were ever told is that his wife “passed away” in Nauvoo.
