Blood And Fire

The Duke of Windsor And the Strange Murder of Sir Harry Oakes

  • 1 Want to read

This book is the seventh or eighth to be written about the famous murder of Sir Harry Oakes in the Bahamas in the summer of 1943. Several critics have rated it the best-written so far - and there was even talk of it being made into a film at one stage.
The Oakes mystery was made more interesting by the involvement of the Duke of Windsor, who was Governor of the Bahamas at the time. According to the author, the Duke was implicated in a cover-up after the slaying and conspired (unsuccessfully) to hang an innocent man.
Compelling stuff for any lover of true murder mysteries. A really good read by a veteran journalist who has studied the case for four decades.
