I was enjoying this book but can't give it 5 stars due to noticing this book must be really old and should before re release have been checked as it's false telling the world the wrong facts about an innocent man who was released from prison for not doing the crime this book clearly has tarnished him with

Eddie Browning served 5.5 years in prison for the notorious M50 murder of Marie Wilks, before being released in 1994. Police yet again with held evidence, and he was not even driving that way home that night

How old is this book !!!!!!
