A rice pudding. A spoonful of arsenic. A Victorian wife on trial for murder.

In 1884, William Lefley died after eating rice pudding in his Lincolnshire home. When arsenic was found, his wife Mary stood accused of a crime that shocked Victorian England.

The Rice Pudding Poisoner tells the chilling story of a fatal meal, a troubled marriage, and the trial and execution of Mary Lefley. Was she truly a ruthless poisoner, or a woman condemned by suspicion and Victorian fear?

A dark and gripping true-crime history of domestic murder, arsenic, and justice in nineteenth-century England.
