Description

Enjoy an evening of intrigue with former special agent, William Plunkett as he takes you through the case of the roaring twenties Join author and former special agent William Plunkett in his fascinating expose of the sensational Washington, D.C. death case that punctuated the end of the roaring twenties. The victim was an attractive young nurse, Virginia McPherson, found dead in her apartment under suspicious circumstances. Her case became a cause célèbre in the capital city where it occupied the headlines for weeks. A maverick patrolman, Robert Allen, doggedly pursued the “suicide” investigation, convinced it was a murder, while it was being reported by the half-dozen daily papers that hung on every bizarre turn. Because of the fervor he created, the entire police investigation was thrown out, a massive public relations disaster for a metropolitan force already besieged by its futile attempts to police the effects of Prohibition. Experience the case unfold in this riveting evening with the author. Life is a never-ending learning process, then why not learn a few more skills to enrich it?
