An examination of the murder of Reading tobacconist, Alfred Oliver and the inquest into his death. Popular opinion was that the prime murder suspect was Philip Yale Drew, a flamboyant, eccentric actor but Whittington-Egan suggests that his hounding was the result of dubious evidence and motivation.
