This was a good read. It contained plenty of suspense to keep me interested although I do think it could have been shortened a little. It was very interesting though. James Camb said she died in his arms, but her body disappeared. With no witnesses, no evidence and no proof how could the truth be properly ascertained. This was a very enjoyable read- a little biased perhaps at times but I did enjoy it.

Loved this book. The reader is invited to play the part of a jury member. Facts are presented and the reader make a judgment at the end. Well researched and unbiased

Very interesting book on the murder of the actress, Gay Gibson. Was it murder or an assignation that went terribly wrong? The author gives the reader the chance to digest the facts and be a fictitious member of the jury. You can then make up your own mind. I really enjoyed reading this book, even though the subject matter was a bit gruesome.

Found this book rather interesting at the start but sadly found it to be drawn out towards the end. But that's not to say somebody else would not enjoy it is a very informative and well researched book. And gives the reader a fascinating look at a cold case it also gives the reader the chance to form their own opinion as to happen to Guy Gibson on the fatal night of October 1947 abound the Durban Castle.

I found this book rather interesting at the start but there were points that were laboured a little too much in the book. Some points that I thought could have been explored more, were not, but I understand that after all this time it would be a bit hard to follow up. Very readable, as I have vague recollections of something about the case from my childhood (through parents or reading).

A solid and well researched book. A fascinating look at a cold case that gives the reader the chance to form their own opinion.
