Introduction

Murder, the Only Way Out explores evidence The Boston Globe used in September 7, 1950 to determine a young Boston mother named Martha Fairburn threw her two little boys out her fifth floor apartment window, and then jumped to her own death.

A police report of the same date, which the researcher for this book resurrected from the department's archives, reveals evidence that could contradict The Globe's assertion. In her book, June Stephenson brings this evidence to the forefront which indicates that Martha did not murder, but was herself murdered.

About the Authors:
June Stephenson has published twelve books, though this is her first true crime volume, written as a novel. She has a BA in economics from Stanford University, and a Ph.D. in psychology. June has two daughters and two granddaughters, and lives in Thousand Oaks, California, with her Labradoodle named Happy.

Art Hersh researched the facts for this crime, exploring over a half a century of genealogy and public documents. He holds two graduate degrees in engineering, one from USC and one from MIT. In his management consulting firm, he numbered the FBI and Department of Justice among his clients. He has two sons and one grandson, and lives with his wife in Wayland, Massachusetts, near the scene of the crime.
