4.9/5 (18671 ratings)

Description:Within the space of just a few weeks in the summer of 1934 the remains of two women's bodies were found in trunks in Brighton - one at the railway station and the other in a house close by. The cases were not related. The first was never solved, while the second led to one of Britain's most sensational murder trials, in which the celebrated defence counsel Norman Birkett represented a low-life client, Toni Mancini, who appeared to be doomed by the evidence stacked up against him.But these were not the first of the so-called 'trunk murders' in Brighton. A little over a hundred years earlier John Holloway had killed his wife Celia and trundled her body to a shallow grave in Lovers Walk. He was hanged for his crime at Horsham gaol.David Rowland's illustrated account of these grim events draws on contemporary newspaper reports to capture both period atmosphere and high courtroom drama.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
