Summary
On a cold January night in 1931, Liverpool insurance agent William Herbert Wallace received a mysterious phone message sending him to a fake address across town, luring him out of his home. When he returned, he found his wife Julia brutally bludgeoned to death in their sitting room, a locked‑door puzzle that would become one of Britain’s most famous unsolved murders and spark nearly a century of debate over whether Wallace was a criminal mastermind, a wrongfully accused husband, or the victim of an elaborate frame‑up.
