Beginning her career by working in an insignificant boarding house in a small iron mining town in Michigan's Upper Peninsula, Mary married well, with her future appearing more than secure. However, her husband Edward- a millionaire owner of multiple iron mines; a Michigan Congressman and Senator; a Negaunee Mayor; and a US Congressman; had a wandering eye. With her husband caught in an affair that resulted in a child, it appears that Mary embarked on her life-long quest for revenge against her accumulating enemies, with more than a dozen eventual suspected victims.
Operating at a time when police departments had few or no detectives, when there was no sharing of police files, when autopsy tests for poisoning were not made unless there were sufficient suspicions, and where the deaths often occurred at several distant locations, Mary's crimes went undetected for over a century. Close only to her only surviving son, Ed Jr..- she seems to have also taught him well in her craft.
Upon her first husband's death, Mary owned the mines and became the Iron Queen. She installed her lover and eventual second husband Nathan- Marquette's soon-to-be Mayor, in the business, and they branched out into the banking and hotel businesses. However, it became clear that Nathan was purposefully causing Mary and Ed Jr. financial harm, and for this he would pay the ultimate price.
The book also gives the likely cause and effect for several other suspected victims.
It is written by an author who had several historical family members among the suspected victims.
The word suspected has been often employed herein. With the great passage of time, and the lack of definitive records, nothing herein can be proved beyond a doubt. The reader is left to come to his own conclusions, based on what is presented in the book, backed up by over two hundred and sixty individual sources/references.
