Description:In 1910, the name Dr Hawley Harvey Crippen entered legend. The remains of his wife, the music hall performer, Belle Elmore were discovered in his London cellar, while he and his secretary Ethel Le Neve were found masquerading as father and son on a ship bound for Canada. Meanwhile, in New York, the Irish family of Charlotte Bell, Crippen's first wife were investigating the mysterious circumstances of her death, nearly 20 years earlier.For over a century, Belle Elmore's murder has been retold as a tale about a cold-blooded killer and the heroic men who brought him to justice, however the real story is one that hasn't been heard. It is told by the ranks of women who dominated the case, not only the larger-than-life Belle, the rebellious and ambitious Ethel, and the courageous Charlotte, but an army of Edwardian actresses, circus performers, singers, horse trainers, landladies, secretaries, bookkeepers and medical professionals whose version of events has been drowned out by those of law enforcement and even by the murderer himself.Their perspectives paint a chilling picture of an Edwardian world, not so entirely distant from our own.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
