Book Description

Publication Date: March 24, 1988

236p, index, B&W photos throughout. The deafening peal of the Gorse Hall bell split the dark night of 1st November, 1909. Within the mansion, wealthy Cheshire tycoon George Harry Storrs lay dying-the victim of a vicious stabbing. Though he seemed to have recognized his assailant, Storrs died without revealing that identity. The hunt was on to find the murderer of George Harry Storrs. The police brought first one, then another suspect to trial. Both were acquitted, making legal history. And for more than three quarters of a century the now legendary Gorse Hall Mystery has remained unsolved. Jonathan Goodman, the acknowledged "premier investigator of crimes past", has resumed the hunt, reconstructing the chilling story of the murder, introducing alternative angles, examining motives, unearthing new facts-and presenting startling fresh evidence to show who was guilty of the stabbing of George Harry Storrs.
