Joan Lock, a former policewoman, is author of crime fiction. Read a question and answer interview here on the History Press website.
Her latest book in the Inspector Best collection featuring Scotland Yardโs Sergeant Ernest Best is titled Dead Born and is set against the sinking of the saloon steamer, the Princess Alice in the Thames in 1878 after being rammed by a Tyne collier. This time, the body count was huge; around 650. Surely no one would notice another body?!
