Step into the hedonistic 1930's as today we delve into a scandalous tale which rocked Britain. Brace yourself for a journey which weaves a narrative of love, betrayal, adultery and murder. From the opulent realms of high society to the shadowy corners of the courtroom, this gripping story will have you on the edge of your seat. Join us as we untangle the web of intrigue surrounding one of history's most sensational trials, shedding light on the complexities of a woman ensnared in the throes of passion and tangled in a suburban life which no longer served her but would she make it out alive?

Today on Macabre London we unlock the mysteries behind the case of Francis & Alma Rattenbury and the murder at the Villa Madeira.
