A thrilling and perplexing investigation of a true Victorian crime
at Dublin railway station. Dublin, November 1856: George Little,
the chief cashier of the Broadstone railway terminus, is found
dead, lying in a pool of blood beneath his desk. He has been
savagely beaten, his head almost severed; there is no sign of a
murder weapon, and the office door is locked, apparently from the
inside. Thousands of pounds in gold and silver are left untouched
at the scene of the crime. Augustus Guy, Ireland's most experienced
detective, teams up with Dublin's leading lawyer to investigate the
murder. But the mystery defies all explanation, and two celebrated
sleuths sent by Scotland Yard soon return to London, baffled. Five
suspects are arrested then released, with every step of the
salacious case followed by the press, clamouring for answers. But
then a local woman comes forward, claiming to know the murderer...
