About this listen

It took three tortured days in 1876 for Charles Bravo to die from the poison that burned its way through his body. The subsequent investigation revealed many people with a grudge against the young barrister. The dramatic inquest was covered in sensational detail by the press, but no one was convicted of his murder. Over a century later, James Ruddick draws on new evidence to solve one of the most famous murders in criminal history.©2009 James Ruddick (P)2009 Oakhill Publishing Ltd Murder True Crime

Fascinating story, well read in a very straight-forward, scientific manner. Gives a very good picture of upper middle-class lifestyle in Victorian times, and good information regarding women's lives at that time.
