COLD CASE: The Mystery of Mary Rogers

It is 1838 and John Anderson’s Liberty Street cigar shop was hopping with newspapermen of New York City. They weren’t there just to buy their cigars, but to buy their cigars and fawn over "The Cigar Girl" - Mary Rogers. In 1941, Mary went missing after a trip to New Jersey and her body was found near Sybil’s Cave, a bucolic Hudson riverside spot in Hoboken, New Jersey. Many speculations arose. Was it her fiance? Her ex fiance? Or could it have been her good friend Edgar Allan Poe?
