In this follow-up to Hampshire Murders, Nicola Sly brings together more murderous tales from across the county, many of which made headline news throughout the nation. They include the last recorded fatal duel to have been fought in England in 1845; the mysterious death of Andover businessman William Parsons in 1858; the 1888 killing of Annie Vaughan; the murder of Grayshott village postmistress Emily Chapman in 1901; and the "murder that never was"--the victim's death was recorded as having been caused by his drunkenness until his naval commanding officer later confessed to killing him. Nicola Sly's well-illustrated and enthralling text will appeal to everyone interested in true crime and the shady side of Hampshire's history.
