Victorian Chelsea was a thriving commercial and residential
development, known for its grand houses and pleasant garden
squares. Violent crime was unheard of in this leafy suburb. The
double murder of an elderly man of God and his faithful housekeeper
in two ferocious, bloody attacks in May of 1870 therefore shook the
residents of Chelsea to the core. This volume examines the
extraordinary case, one which could have leapt straight from the
pen of Agatha Christie herself: the solving of the crime relied on
the discovery of a packing box dripping with blood, and the capture
of a mysterious French nephew. Compiled by a former detective, it
looks at the facts: no direct evidence to place the suspect at
either of the crime scenes; no weapon recovered; no motive
substantiated. It lets you, the reader, decide: would you, on the
evidence presented, have sent the same man to the gallows?
