Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. "The Case of Constance Kent" examines one of the most chilling and controversial murder cases of the Victorian era. In 1860, the brutal killing of a young child at Road Hill House shocked the British public and baffled investigators. John Rhode provides a meticulous account of the events leading up to the tragedy, the subsequent investigation by Scotland Yard's Detective Inspector Jack Whicher, and the eventual confession of the victim's sixteen-year-old half-sister, Constance Kent.This work delves into the complex family dynamics, the social pressures of the time, and the legal proceedings that followed. Rhode offers a compelling narrative that blends historical fact with the tension of a psychological thriller, exploring themes of guilt, domestic secrecy, and the limitations of 19th-century forensics. As a foundational piece of true crime literature, this book remains a vital resource for understanding the sensationalism and judicial processes of the mid-1800s. It provides a window into a crime that captivated a nation and changed the way the public viewed the sanctity of the Victorian home.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
