The headless corpse of a young woman, discovered in the woods of Northern Kentucky in February 1896, disrupted communities in three states. The woman was Pearl Bryan, daughter of a wealthy farmer in Greencastle, Indiana, and her suspected killers, Scott Jackson and Alonzo Walling, were dental students in Cincinnati, Ohio. How her decapitated body ended up in the Highlands of Kentucky is the subject of So Far from Home: The Pearl Bryan Murder.
It was the age of yellow journalism, when sensational murder cases drove newspaper circulation and daily papers competed to print the most gruesome details and explicit illustrations. Local crimes became national news, and readers followed the daily progress of police investigations and murder trials as if they were serialized mysteries. The murder of Pearl Bryan in 1896, featuring a headless corpse, remorseless villains, and threats of civil unrest, fit the bill perfectly. So Far from Home: The Pearl Bryan Murder revisits the story as it unfolded in the daily press.

The author, Robert Wilhelm, researches the 100-year-old murder of Pearl Bryan in great detail and without bias. Although there is some creative dialogue and some thought processes, they are logical and keep the story accurate based on the time and climate of the population at that time. Having had a family growing up in this area, I feel Wilhelm accurately captures the attitudes, actions, and beliefs of the people of Greencastle, Indiana, regarding relationships, religious thought, and behaviors both politically and socially for this time period. The brutality of this crime and the actions and behaviors of the two young men convicted for this crime is vividly portrayed.
The narrator, Charles Huddleston provides a solid narration as he tells the story of Pearl and the subsequent trial. He speaks clearly and with a steady cadence moving the story forward. His deep voice and rich voice with the right amount of inflection keep the audience captivated.
I enjoy true crime stories and found this one to be intriguing, well-researched, and highly accurate in many ways. I enjoyed Wilhelm’s storytelling style as well. I highly recommend this audiobook.
