4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent account of a celebrated murder., June 7, 1999

By A Customer

The Green Bicycle Murder by C. Wendy East

This detailed and well-written account of a celebrated English murder case of 1919 is a quality addition to any crime-buff's bookshelf. On a summer's evening in rural Leicestershire, a young girl lay dead, shot to death on a quiet country road. She had last been seen with a stranger who rode a green bicycle. Months later, a green bicycle was found in the canal, and traced to its owner, Ronald Light, who soon found himself on trial for his life. Light was acquitted, and officially the case is unsolved. East comes up with fascinating new information, and allows us to reach our own conclusions as to the guilt or innocence of Ronald Light.
