A Scottish Murder Love Triangle - Frightful Fridays
News of the Times Episode 281 | 1765
1765 County Forfar Scotland and 21 year old newly married Katharine Nairn, wed to 40ish bookish Thomas Ogilvie, is the topic of gossip within the household and the community.  Dashing younger brother Lieutenant Patrick Ogilvie has arrived back from East India and a warm, and some say, intimate relationship has quickly developed between Katharine and Patrick.  A dangerous game as any kind of relationship between the two would legally be termed incestuous with severe penalties involved.
As the relationship grows, Patrick is banished from the house.  A plan is hatched between the two lovers that would not only allow them to be together but also enable Patrick to be the new Laird with title and inheritance.
But waiting in the wings is the partner of the third brother watching, spying and reporting.  With both brothers gone, the youngest brother would become sole inheritor and the new Laird.
A salacious, tangled love triangle that turned to murder from Scotland 1765 is today’s episode of Frightful Fridays.
We hope you enjoy the show!
Hosted by Robin Coles.
