Eugene O'Neill Under The Elms
Eugene O'Neill did not write mystery novels or plays, but his play Desire Under the Elms, recently produced on Broadway, does end with a murderer and her lover led off to jail. Abbie Putnam, who is married to Eben's father, murders the young baby that she and Eben had conceived. This caused one theater-goer to remark:
"I hate to see that Eben son go down."
