Mysterious Circumstance: The Death of Meriwether Lewis plot
"Suicide? Accident? Murder? Conspiracy?"
In 1809, famed American explorer Meriwether Lewis died of gunshot wounds at Grinder's Stand on the Natchez Trace, an isolated wilderness route connecting Nashville, Tennessee, with Natchez, Mississippi. Did the governor of Upper Louisiana commit suicide as history related, or was his end far more sinister? In this mystery-thriller, competing versions of Lewis's death are presented by ornithologist Alexander Wilson, a representative of Thomas Jefferson and a friend of Lewis, in an interview with Priscilla Grinder, the only alleged witness to the explorer's final night.
