    89 | Murder in Wartime Folkestone: Did Dennis Leckey Get Away With It?
    Feb 19 2026
    On the streets of Folkestone, Kent, amid World War II, 18-year-old Caroline Trayler disappeared after being seen drinking at the local pub one Sunday evening in June 1943. When Police Constable Lewis entered a bombed-out grocer’s shop several days later in the hunt for the missing woman, he discovered a tragic scene which confirmed that the missing person’s case had now become a murder enquiry.

    88 | Elizabeth Jones and Karl Hulten: Wartime London’s “Bonnie and Clyde” - Author Discussion
    Feb 13 2026
    In this special author discussion episode, Prash and Melissa Ganendran share their experiences of writing their latest book, which examines the 1944 crime spree of Elizabeth Jones and Karl Hulten, culminating in the murder of private car hire driver George Edward Heath. The case became known as the 'Cleft Chin Murder', while some newspapers at the time described the pair as London's 'Bonnie and Clyde'.

    In the episode, we talk about how we discovered and researched the case, the lives and fateful meeting of Betty Jones and Karl Hulten, and some of the new information we uncovered.
