Hastings, England, 1997: On a beautiful, sunny Saturday, 13-year-old Billy-Jo was left alone in her garden for a mere 40 minutes. She was found savagely murdered, bludgeoned by an 18-inch iron tent peg in a shocking act of brutality. With no evidence of a break-in, the crime occurred in broad daylight, shattering the calm of Lower Park Road. Lines of inquiry revealed disturbing prior reports of prowlers and a girl who feared she was being stalked.
Soon, the spotlight turned from the unseen attacker to a respected family man whose strangely circuitous alibi and hidden history of deceit were placed under intense scrutiny. Who committed the saddest and most brutal murder ever attended by police?. The truth remains elusive, locked within those fleeting 40 minutes. Do not miss this new chilling episode!
