In the mid-nineteenth century, there had been a murder in my house. In the same year, I learned that my husband’s great -great -great grandfather had been publicly hanged for murder in 1861.

In 1912, two little girls, 10 year old Amy Collinson and 7 year old Frances Nicholson, were murdered on their way home from a Christmas concert.

What must it feel like to be arrested and accused of a murder that you didn't commit?

When we get faulty goods or a bad service most of us like to get it off our chest by firing off a letter of complaint. There must be millions of them written every year, all destined to be a bit of extra work for somebody to deal with, and then dispatched to their "Rubbish" bin, never to be seen again.
Somewhere along that journey she disappeared and her naked and violated body was found in a ditch the next day.
Scotland Yard led the investigation, and after a couple of weeks 28 year old Leonard Richardson, a married man and father of two young children, was arrested and charged.
The book examines the evidence gathered during the investigation and presented at his Old Bailey trial in great detail. Was the "Not Guilty" verdict just or did he get away with murder?

A long career in Local Government Social Services Departments, and in N.H.S. Mental Health Services instilled in me a keen interest in psychology and in people’s behaviour. When I took early retirement I envisaged a lazy life with lots of time to indulge myself in one of my favourite pastimes - reading True Crime books, but that wasn’t to be. A childhood memory, a dark family secret, and a possible miscarriage of justice led me to thoroughly research an eighty year old crime, and then to write a book about it “The Rotherham Trunk Murder”. I had caught the writing ”bug” and a whole new career has opened up for me, researching and writing about true crime cases; with a particular interest in those that might have involved a miscarriage of justice.
