In October 1922 Edith Thompson’s husband was murdered by her lover, Frederick Bywaters; Edith and Freddy were both hanged for the crime. This volume traces the relationships between Edith and each of the men, with extracts from the love letters that played a crucial role in sealing her fate, before recounting the publicity the trial attracted, the security of the verdict and what it reveals about 20th-century perceptions of women.
