À propos de ce contenu audio

 In 1895, 22-year-old Robert Hudson took his wife Kitty and their infant son on holiday to Helmsley, North Yorkshire. When they departed hurriedly under suspicious circumstances, the landlady at their boarding house was surprised. Soon, Kitty Hudson’s relatives grew concerned as to her whereabouts and the Yorkshire Police set out to track a killer who used multiple aliases and sent false letters to throw them off his trail. This episode revisits a little-known Victorian double murder case from North Yorkshire.
