Who killed Florence Nightingale Shore in 1920, and got away with murder? Miss Shore was a nurse, like her god-mother Florence Nightingale, and had been decorated for her service in South Africa and in France. She had come through two wars and the deadly global flu pandemic unscathed. But on a dark and rainy January afternoon, she was bludgeoned to death in a carriage on the Brighton line.Scotland Yard could not solve the crime, even with the help of famous criminal pathologist Sir Bernard Spilsbury. But now there are new suspects, and a shocking new theory about the murderer.This is a story of many heroic and stalwart women: pioneering Queen's Nurses, fearless travellers and campaigners, loyal friends, feisty servants, and generous, charitable ladies. Between them they tell the story of a tragic Edwardian murder mystery. But has the murderer finally been uncovered?
