Salacious gossip of an ignorant era, or the underlying’s of corruption and control? We discover surprising claims of passion and companionship that sweep the Eastbourne landscape. However, exactly who is involved and where do their tentacles of power lead? An investigation within an investigation highlights direct moves from within a high profile medical association, that may change the course of the case. But what are the true motives? Conspiracy with a capital C?

Doctor John Bodkin Adams finds himself in the Old Bailey, in front of the imposing Judge Lord Devlin. The country is hooked by revelation after revelation leading to titillating newspaper headlines across the tabloid front pages. Arrogance and secrecy is laid out for all to see, as medical professionals, scientists and a barrage of other ‘justice thirsty witnesses’, reveal their truths.

A clear picture emerges of how deeply entrenched in the lives of his patients, the ‘good doctor’ was. Was this all-consuming trust and care, or something much more sinister? Can Doctor John Bodkin Adams, convince his patients to do anything he commands? A common pattern in diagnosis starts to emerge and DS Hannam believes he has uncovered the driving force behind many of Doctor Adams’ decisions.

Doctor John Bodkin Adams enters the frame. A Northern Irish doctor with a foreboding personality, and big aspirations to go with it. Life in Eastbourne as a GP is sweet, but when the unexpected death of patient ‘Bobbie Hullett’ sparks a mysterious phone call to police, everything changes.

Death, death and more death. A high profile arrest shines a spotlight on some surprising goings on among Eastbourne patients. Brash and determined ‘Detective Superintendent Herbert Hannam’ is assigned to the case. Hannam is consumed by the investigation with his complete focus locked into uncovering what he can, about Dr Adams. But will he get more than he bargained for? Heroin, morphine, barbiturates. Lashings of drugs, readily consumed by elderly rich patients.

A possible new motive becomes apparent. After all this time, was the driving force behind Dr John Bodkin Adams actually compassion and kindness? Have we been basking in the presence of an ‘Angel Of Mercy’ since day one? Or, is this about the ultimate control one human-being can have, over another? The grim reaper in a crisp white doctor’s coat?

The verdict is in and the country is stunned. Further revelations on the actions of Dr Adams become apparent but they do little to change the direction of his fate. We follow Dr John Bodkin Adams to his grave and delve into the repercussions of the case. Changes are made to the law as a result of what happened in Eastbourne, back in the 1930’s 40’s and 50’s.
