S2E7 - On a cold drizzly night in Manhattan, 1857, the attractive and strong Dr. Burdell returns to his once fashionable marble stooped 4-story home on Bond St, shortly before midnight. He would never be seen alive again. The murderer must be one of the several residents of the house. Was it the cook? The fop? The politican? The widow? The butcher? The ingenue? Or even a child? Hear the story and determine for yourself - who killed Dr. Harvey Burdell?!?
