Softcover / Paperback. Etat : Fine. First edition. Softcover. On January 23, 1991, twin sisters Emma and Beckie Harper left their family home for a party. They didn't return that night and, the following day, local news reported a barn fire in a village outside their home town of Cheltenham. Human remains had been discovered in…the barn - they were Emma and Beckie, aged just 17yrs. In this moving account, the twins' mother, Vicky, relates the tragic events surrounding their deaths and the battle to discover the truth. Three young men admitted being at the barn with the twins and were charged with murder, later reduced to manslaughter. At the trial, Vicky and Stephen Harper endured the destruction of their daughters' characters while two of the accused were discharged and the third acquitted. The book explores issues which horrify every family. The violent death of a child. Even worse, the violent death of two. The destruction of the people who are left. The failure of the judicial system to establish the truth. To this day, Vicky and Steve struggle to make sense of the evidence which had been ignored and to uncover further details of that terrible night in January 1991. Illus., Epilogue + Chronology of Events. 274pp. 8vo. softcover. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. with no creasing to covers.
