A Killing in Plymouth Colony There had never before been a murder in Plymouth Colony. In a community founded on such high ideals and strong principles, the very idea was unthinkable, but the facts were undeniable: John Newcomen had been shot and killed by someone. But by whom? This historical novel brings together the drama of a murder mystery and the complexities of the evolving relationship between a father and son to provide a glimpse of what life might have been like growing up in the young Plymouth Colony as it too struggled to deternine its course and its identity. |
