Gun alley : murder, lies and failure of justice
Morgan, Kevin John, 1956-2005
Book
Gun Alley strips away the myths surrounding Australia's infamous `schoolgirl murder' in the 1920s - not only exposing the travesty of justice that sent an innocent man to the gallows, but revealing the likely killer. This is the riveting story of how botched policework, trial by media and lynch-law hysteria spawned a staggering conspiracy to convict and hang an innocent man, and reveals for the first time the vital clues - missed in the original investigation - that point, more than 80 years on, to the true killer.
