Fascinating! I find myself more intrigued by the investigative procedure of those days rather than the crime itself; though this is truly one of those hidden gems lost in history.
Definitely. I've never been that interested in crimes themselves, but the mystery is always interesting. The human drama all around it, telling us so much about that time and place, is quite fascinating.
Agree.
