Does anybody know if there are any books on this murder?  I saw it on T.V. the other night and would love to read something about these murders. It was Josiah and Sarah Moore and their 4 children and 2 neighbor children Lena and Ina something. They were all killed with an ax in their beds while sleeping and this was about 100 years ago. Can anyone help me???

 The year was 1912

Thanks Christa
