This is Part One of Three of Shattered Memory.

On Monday 13th of July at roughly 3:45pm, in the hallway of 105 Onslow Square in Kensington, SW7, 30-year-old German national Gunther Podola shot Detective Sergeant Raymond Purdy dead. Traced to a nearby hotel at 95 Queen’s Gate, CID detectives and colleagues of the dead officer charged into Gunther’s room… thirty minutes later, he was escorted out, suffering bruises, weakness and amnesia. With one officer dead and the culprit with no memory of what he was being charged with, the whole crux of the trial would be ‘who is telling the truth’, the vengeful officers or the killer with no memory. 

• Date: Monday 13th of July at roughly 3:45pm (scene of the shooting)
• Location: The Hallway, 105 Onslow square, Kensington, SW7
• Victim: 1 (Det Sgt Raymond William Purdy)

• Method: police brutality, corruption and assault / amnesia

This is Part Two of Two of The Woman in Red.

At 5:40am on Thursday 6th May 1948, on the basement steps of 17 Finborough Road in West Brompton, the broken body of 26-year-old part time waitress and prostitute Winifred Mulholland was found.

The Police initially assumed that she had been murdered elsewhere and dumped here, as no killer would be so bold, brazen or bonkers as to dump a murder victim’s body outside of their own home, almost like a grisly calling card or a callous confession to the heinous crime of killing a lone prostitute but as the Police swarmed and the neighbours congregated, along the street every curtain was open, every house-light was on, and every tenant was gossiping ten-to-the-dozen, except one.

• Date: Thursday 6th May 1948
• Location: 1st Floor, 17 Finborough Road, West Brompton, SW10
• Victim: 1 (Winifred Virginia Mulholland)
• Culprit: 1 (George Cyril Epton)
• Method: strangulation, assault, bludgeoning, disposal

Missing for four days, and dead for almost one, the position of her body posed a perplexing mystery; as had she been hit by car, had she fallen from a height, or had her killer dumped her in plain sight on a busy street? But why?
