1926 THE I.C.I AFFAIR £9.95
(Paperback)
A fascinating, thought-provoking book set against the backdrop of Britain’s momentous 1926 General Strike
A compelling investigation into a true sensational murder scandal and cover-up that has remained largely hidden for a century… missed by Media,
Criminologists and History.At the heart of the affair was a high-ranking politician who had once stood shoulder to shoulder with Lloyd George at the pinnacle of the British government. What was his mysterious involvement as he furiously forged a 20th century industrial behemoth, Imperial Chemical Industries (I.C.I.) ?
What was the secret Roscoe Brunner took to the grave when he murderd his famous authoress wife and then shot himself? Why were members of European royalty so deeply involved? And was it mere coincidence that the bedroom where the Brunners perished was twice ransacked – on the very night of their funerals and, later, on the eve of Imperial Chemical Industries’ first annual meeting?
Dismissed at the time as a mere “domestic tragedy” why did the powers-that-be unbelievably cover up and classify the file for a hundred years, way beyond the secrecy requirement for Cabinet papers relating to the Second World War and King Edward VIII’s abdication?
One of the most intriguing mysteries in the history of British crime.
