Her destination was her living quarters and place of employment, the Maplehurst mansion, the home of Mount Vernon, Ohio's leading industrialist. Within sight of her destination, an attacker emerged from the darkness, rushing her from behind. Their battle cut across the Maplehurst lawn, ending in Bricker's death before witnesses could be sure what was happening. The killer melted away into the night. The hasty investigation that followed almost resulted in an innocent Black man's lynching before the case went cold and was forgotten. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMark Sebastian Jordan has uncovered the roots and ripples of a story that crosses the continent and points out the possibility of a suspect 120 years later.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMark Sebastian Jordan is based in the Central Highlands region of Ohio, where he explores history and the arts.
