This was a little too much true crime for my tastes; I was interested more in the class and gender issues. Still a good listen for all that; I thought the narrator, Maggie Ollerenshaw, was fine. Mentioning it here for the true crime aficionados.

Sounds good--I've added it to my Audible wish list. I recently caught an interesting movie on TCM called
Yield to the Night, starring Diana Dors, that was supposedly loosely based on the Ruth Ellis case.
