Worcestershire Murders brings together numerous murderous tales,
some which were little known outside the county, and others which
made national headlines. Contained within the pages of this book
are the stories behind some of the most heinous crimes ever
committed in Worcestershire. They include the murders of the entire
Gummery family at Berrow in 1780; Catherine Gulliver, killed by
John Butler at Ombersley in 1864; and Maria Holmes, slain by her
husband at Bromsgrove in 1872. Cases from the twentieth century
include two unsolved murders - the body of an unidentified woman
found in a tree in Hagley Wood in 1943, and the brutal killing of
Florrie Porter at Lickey End in 1944. Nicola Sly's carefully
researched and enthralling text will appeal to anyone interested in
the shady side of Worcestershire's history.
