"In 1984, at the age of 78, world-renowned rose grower Hilda Murrell was found brutally murdered in the Shropshire countryside. She had just gained approval to testify on the unsolved problems of radioactive waste at the first British planning inquiry into a new nuclear power plant in Sizewell, Suffolk. ... The case spawned numerous books, plays and TV programmes as it became one of the most baffling British murders of the 20th century. ... Green makes a compelling case that Hilda was abducted to find out what she knew about the Falklands War and problems in the proposed Sizewell nuclear power plant, similar to the one which failed disastrously at Three Mile Island in 1979"--Back cover.
