Items related to The Great British Torso Mystery
The grim discovery of the unidentified, mutilated human trunk on the banks of the River Severn in 1938, heralded the start of one of the nation’s most sinister and infamous murder cases. A second, related discovery of the gassed body of gigolo Brian Sullivan, triggered an investigation which uncovered a web of salacious intrigue, involving rumours of an illegal abortion racket, illicit homosexual liaisons, treachery and blackmail.
No clear motive , cause of death, or indeed any positive identification was ever made, and the culprit of this hideous piece of butchery remains unknown. Renowned crime-writer, Richard Whittington-Egan, reshuffles the maze of conflicting uncertainties surrounding both suspicious deaths, and in doing so, opens up the possibilities at the centre of this sensational murder mystery.
