Pełny opis

In July 1895, a quiet house in Plaistow became the centre of one of Victorian England's most disturbing domestic cases.

When a mother was found dead upstairs and her two sons continued living below, the story shocked the nation-not for its violence alone, but for what followed: silence, routine, and days lived beneath a locked door.

The Plaistow Case reconstructs the events of that summer and traces their long aftermath, from the courtroom at the Old Bailey to institutions, emigration, war, and adulthood. Grounded in historical records and contemporary accounts, this narrative examines not only what happened, but how a family, a society, and two children tried to live with it.

Written with care and restraint, this book is not a work of sensational crime, but a study of domestic rupture, childhood, and the uneasy ways life continues after tragedy.
