“But there had to be something else to make you think it was there,” said Lewis.
“The Gallowses’ bad luck. Their infant mortality, the baby who lived for a while only to die when he came back home, the miscarriages, Mr. Gallows’s gout, both their heart conditions, Rosellen’s hallucinations and paranoia—they are all symptoms of lead poisoning. Rosellen didn’t kill her babies, she had a poisoned well.”
