Murder at Wrotham Hill takes the killing in October 1946 of Dagmar
Petrzywalski as the catalyst for a compelling and unique meditation
on murder and fate. Dagmar, a gentle, eccentric spinster, was the
embodiment of Austerity Britain's prudence and thrift. Her murderer
Harold Hagger's litany of petty crimes, abandoned wives,
sloughed-off identities and desertion was its opposite. Featuring
England's first celebrity policeman, Fabian of the Yard, the
celebrated forensic scientist, Keith Simpson, and history's most
famous and dedicated hangman, Albert Pierrepoint, this is a
gripping and deeply moving book.
