Murder in the Tower
Most of these cases I've heard of, and considering the author is a defence attourney I wasn't surprised by the bias slant to some of the cases.
Some of the men mentioned, with the evidence supplied seem as guilty as sin, others however I could go either way and then there is the poor guy at the end who is innocent. His fiancee disappears, but is eventually tracked down.
