It was Christmas Day, 1929 and the Lawson family were preparing to celebrate. There was a cake being baked, hunting traditions being honored, and a family gathering in what should have been a joyful, peaceful holiday. But beneath that calm veneer, something far darker stirred.
By the end of the day, the Lawson farmhouse would become the epicenter of a nightmare—a scene so gruesome it would stain the memory of Christmas forever. What drives a man to turn on his own family? What breaks inside someone to twist love into destruction?
The answers, if they ever existed, are buried in time, along with Charles Lawson’s final, haunting secrets. This is the story of a family frozen in their final moments, of a crime that defies understanding, and of a legacy that still echoes nearly a century later.
