A womans body is found in a disused bomb site off the Holloway Road. She is identified as Lillian Frobisher, a respectable wife and mother who lived with her family nearby. The police assume that Lillian must have been the victim of a sexual assault but when the autopsy finds no evidence of rape, they turn their attention to her private life...
