- The Death of Evelyn Foster
158,95 kr. Evelyn Foster died on 7 January 1931.She was 29.No one knows exactly why she died, or even if she was killed. They only know where and when it happened.This book is based on a true account of the inquest into her death (after which a verdict of murder by person or persons unknown was returned) and a case study carried out into it by six fictional characters - two law tutors and four post-graduate students at Newcastle Law School. Burned, frozen, semi-naked, barely alive, Evelyn was found by a bus crew on Twelfth Night 1931. She was lying yards from her burnt-out taxi on a bleak stretch of moor in Northumberland. Known locally as Wolf 's Nick, it lies off the main Newcastle-Jedburgh road six miles southeast of the village of Otterburn.Evelyn was taken home and died early the next day from shock caused by severe burning. Before she died she told her mother and the police that she and her car had been set on fire by a stranger in a bowler hat. She had given him a lift.But was it the truth?Matthew Armstrong, tutor at Newcastle Law School, has known for years that mystery cloaks the death of Evelyn Foster on that icy winter's night. With the help of a Professor in Law at Durham University, he decides to set four post-graduate law students a case study. After so long, they can't hope to bring a killer-if there is a killer-to justice. But can they shed any light on who and why?
