For the love of ellen

What could possibly drive two elderly widows to commit, as the Prosecution stated, "the most brutal act this town has seen?" Was it the horror of what they discovered in their dear friend's home that motivated their actions, or was it the Texas stranger's sadistic behavior that made them spin out of control and commit this heinous crime? Perhaps it was simply an act of "self-defense." The trial rivals those of O. J. Simpson, Casey Anthony, and Jodi Arias, and even after the story ends, the reader may still question whether justice had actually been served. You be the judge! As you learn about the decades-long friendship between the beloved characters, Blanche, Nellie, and Ellen, and how the evil greediness of a stranger disrupted their quiet contentedness, you will be drawn into the insanity of the events that leads to the unimaginable conclusion of this story. The story reveals how, in a dire situation, the bond between life-long friends can sometimes override one's moral integrity.
