Description

Checkmate: A Re-examination of the Wallace Murder Mystery In 1931, a telephone message led William Wallace to his death. On January 20th, he left his home in Anfield and took three trams to Allerton, searching for an address that didn't exist. When he returned home, his wife Julia was found brutally murdered in their front parlour. Despite being tried and convicted of her murder, the verdict was overturned by the Court of Criminal Appeal due to re-examination of evidence. The case remains unsolved, with many myths and inaccuracies surrounding it. Checkmate sets the record straight, dispelling decades-old misconceptions about this infamous crime. This book marks the 90th anniversary of the Wallace murder and offers a fresh perspective on one of Britain's most enduring unsolved cases.
