The case of the poisoned partridge : the strange death of Lieutenant Chevis

Janes, Diane2013
Books, Manuscripts
On 22 June 1931, Lieutenant Hugh Chevis and Frances, his bride of six months, sat down to dinner as usual at their bungalow at Deepcut Barracks. Within an hour, Chevis was showing signs of strychnine poisoning and by the next morning he was dead. Thus began one of the most intriguing unsolved murder enquiries of the 20th century - soon to become known as 'The Case of the Poisoned Partridge'. This book provides the definitive account of the case.
