Monica Weller Livres

L'écriture de Monica Weller explore la découverte de vérités cachées et d'aspects souvent négligés des histoires humaines, en particulier dans le genre du true crime. Poussée par un profond intérêt pour l'injustice, elle examine méticuleusement des documents d'archives, à la recherche de nouvelles preuves susceptibles de modifier les perceptions historiques. Au-delà de son travail d'investigation, Weller applique également sa sensibilité artistique à la photographie, capturant la beauté brute des paysages et des portraits, souvent en mettant l'accent sur les techniques traditionnelles. Son style narratif est incisif, révélant les motivations et les circonstances complexes qui ont façonné la vie de ses sujets.

"Fifty years ago, Ruth Ellis was the last woman to be hanged in Britain. She was convicted for shooting her lover, David Blakely, and the notorious affair was filmed as Dance with a Stranger: the story of a peroxide tart who killed her man out of jealousy." "At Ruth's trial, the jurors took just 23 minutes to find her guilty, after a case substantially lacking in forensic or ballistic analysis. Now after fifty years, Ruth Ellis's sister has revealed crucial evidence about the third man in the case - the man who she believes pulled the trigger for the fatal shots and the man who was part of a web of British secret agents and double agents into which Ruth Ellis had fallen. At the heart of these new findings is the startling evidence that Ruth was being run by Dr Stephen Ward, a decade before his name became public in the infamous John Profumo-Christine Keeler scandal."--Jacket

Fifty years later, amateur sleuth and author Monica Weller set about solving the murder - without the help of the prohibited files.
