Summary of Karen Abbott's The Ghosts of Eden Park - E-book - ePub

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Remus sold himself to Imogene Holmes. He would handle her divorce, and she didn't have to worry about his fee; in fact, he would pay the rent on her apartment and spend more time with her than he did with his wife. #2 Remus had always enjoyed confrontation, and he fought with the plumber who had disturbed his wife.
He was eventually acquitted. His wife, Lillian, filed for divorce a second and final time, accusing him of cruelty. He agreed to a settlement reflective of his success: a lump sum of $50, 000, $25 per week in alimony, and $30, 000 in a trust for their daughter. #3 Remus's plan was to start a large-scale operation to sell liquor on the medicinal market. He would obtain wholesale drug companies, then obtain withdrawal permits that would allow him to remove whiskey from his warehouses and sell it on the medicinal market.
#4 Imogene had sold herself to Remus, too. She was malleable and receptive to his schemes. She would not tell anyone that Remus had always been terrified of ghosts. She would not divulge that his brother, Herman, had died in an insane asylum.
