About this listen

Like all great mysteries this begins with a corpse, five in fact, five and a bit if you count the severed head.

This particular case has remained undisclosed for almost three decades. Sworn to secrecy, never to divulge the truth while the living were still at risk of reprisals. I've refrained from publishing or even speaking of those Regent's Park murders.
