Description

It's simply to amuse herself while in the clinic the eager Inspector Morse starts the small guide called Homicide on the Oxford Canal. But so intriguing may be the story it tells--of the infamous 1859 killing of Joanna Franks aboard the channel ship Barbara Bray--that not really Morseis appealing nurses may keep him from it. Was Joanna truly raped and killed by other guests? Morse thinks the men hanged for the crime were harmless.
