Tudor England's Dumbest Murder

Available for over a year

Alice Arden wanted her husband Thomas dead. So did the rest of the village of Faversham. What followed was a twisted dance of passion, poison, insane plots and dastardly assassins. A tale so macabre that it became a true crime sensation in its own day. Returning to help tell the story is Dr Blessin Adams whose new book Thou Savage Woman: Female Killers in Early Modern Britain is out now. Edited by Tomos Delargy. Produced by Freddy Chick. Senior Producer is Charlotte Long.
