(Whisper to the Black Candle is a fast-moving, entertaining account of the sensational Anjette Lyles murder case. In 1950's Georgia, Macon was a sleepy little town where no one locked doors. This quiet place was rocked by the news in 1958 that glamorous local restauranteur Anjette Lyles had been arrested for murdering her first husband, second husband, mother-in-law and nine-year-old daughter over a six year period. Drawing worldwide attention, the case was spiced up with references to voodoo and black magic. While most people in Macon believed Anjette to be guilty, some swear to this day that she was innocent. What kind of woman could cold-bloodedly feed arsenic to her victims while sitting at their hospital bedsides? Read Whisper to the Black Candle and decide for yourself.
