Murder at Teal's Pond : Hazel Drew and the mystery that inspired Twin Peaks

David Bushman and Mark Givens teamed up to written Murder at  Teal's Pond, the story what happened to Hazel Drew and the mystery that inspired Twin Peaks.  Twin Peaks, the television show, was created based on the Hazel's death but is really does not follow the actual story.

Hazel Drew was a young working girl who grew up and lived outside Albany New York close to 100 years ago.  Her life can be tracked up  until the day she died.  She was found a week later in Teal's Pond.  But the mystery of how and why she died there has never been solved.

Many people were investigating the case, but there were many secrets and truths not shared.  So when  these new authors go back to try and find new answers to old questions they find out that they just don't seem to exist.  So this book reviews the police reports, the coroner's report and the many newspaper accounts of what happened but there are no new answers in this book.

That was a little disappointing and frustrating after reading the whole book.
