A GOOD NIGHT FOR MURDER
The Unsolved Christmas Eve Killing of Harriet Buswell and the Case Sixteen Years Before Jack the Ripper
Christmas Eve, 1872. A woman walks home with a stranger. By morning, she is dead.
The man she brought home was seen by witnesses. Police followed the trail. A German ship's chaplain, Dr. Gottfried Hessel, was arrested and identified by several witnesses.
Then everything began to unravel.
Why did the evidence collapse? And how did a murder witnessed by so many people remain unsolved?
