Santa Fe Based Author Sally Denton Discusses: THE COLONY: Faith and Blood in a Promised Land
Show Notes

Santa Fe -based Investigative journalist Sally Denton dives into the still-ongoing case of the murder of nine people - all members of the LeBarón and La Mora communities—fundamentalist Mormons whose forebears broke from the LDS Church and settled in Northern Mexico in the 19th century.  In a masterful work of history and a chilling, compulsive true crime narrative, she tells the story of a massacre which unfurls into the strange, violent history of the LeBaron clan in a land, and under circumstances much stranger than fiction.
