We dive into a real life locked-room murder mystery in the first ever episode of A STUDY OF STRANGE. Who killed Julia Wallace on September 20th, 1931? It is a case that has stumped investigators for nearly a century. Our special guest, writer of mystery & thrillers, Norm Thoeming aka August Norman, joins to help figure it out.

Julia’s body was found by her husband, William Herbert Wallace, after returning home from a bizarre outing. Initially the doors to their home were locked before William gained entry to find the brutal scene. William H. Wallace had alibis, lots of them in fact, but their apparent strangeness lead investigators to presume William committed the act of murder. He was tried and convicted to death before an appeal set him free. If William didn’t do it, who did?
