A two-day trial followed, but despite huge public outcry, she was found guilty and sentenced to death. At 28, Ruth became the last woman executed in Britain, her hanging one of the most notorious under prolific hangman Albert Pierrepoint.</p>
<p>Carol Ann Lee examines the facts behind the headlines surrounding this infamous case, which many believe led to the dismantling of the death penalty a decade later. Drawing on interviews and in-depth research into the full range of sources, she reveals the woman behind the crime.</p>
<p>Previously published as <em><span class="a-text-bold a-text-italic">A Fine Day for a Hanging</span></em>, this is the acclaimed biography that inspired the ITV drama, <em><span class="a-text-bold a-text-italic">A Cruel Love</span></em> – a portrait of 1950s club life in all its seedy glamour, and a tragic true tale of murder, class, love and betrayal.</p>

In this unique and fascinating book, world-renowned forensic scientist Dr Angela Gallop and highly acclaimed former Detective Chief Superintendent and Head of CID for West Yorkshire Police Chris Gregg provide intriguing insights into some of the many cases they have helped to solve as well as looking at other high-profile cases where their individual skills could have saved time &#8211; <span class="a-text-italic">and lives</span>.</p>
<p>For the first time Chris and Angela have come together to share their bespoke perspectives on the art and science of policing. They will look at various areas of law enforcement and consider how best their own expertise was &#8211; or could have been &#8211; deployed.</p>
<p>A joint venture by two leading proponents in the international fight against serious crime. One representing the views, the history and the procedures of the police. The other representing the peak achievements of forensic science.</p>
<p>Two voices. Two areas of expertise. One goal:</p>
<p><span class="a-text-italic">To catch a killer&#8230;</span></p>
