Shirley Butler, a 21 year old woman, was found dead just metres from her home in Waverton on Christmas Day 1952.


Detectives launched an intense hunt for answers and even staged a world first radio re enactment of her final tram ride, while the press hinted that police were holding back key details.


Nearly six months later, a dramatic arrest made headlines, but the revelations that followed proved even more astonishing.
