About this deal

On Boxing Day, Edwards’ family laid flowers at the scene of her shooting, where forensic investigators continued to work. A heart-shaped plaque bearing a pink and green floral design read: “Special Daughter, the happiness you brought in your own special way, will be remembered with love each and every day.” The inquest heard that Edwards, whose occupation was given as dental nurse/beautician, was pronounced dead at Arrowe Park hospital on Christmas Day after being taken there from the pub. On the final day, I took a little cross and a photograph of Alan with me, telling my girls that whether or not Ashley was found guilty, we would just sit quietly out of respect for his family.” Police were called to the scene at 11.50pm on 24 December shortly after a gunman fired shots into the front entrance of the pub and fled in a dark vehicle, believed to be a Mercedes. This was a good one, a young woman wakes up to find that she has be accused of attempted murder, but having no recollection of it.

Didn’t she ever struggle with feelings of hurt and anger? “I had real faith that the criminals remained in God’s hands. I was very conscious that I needed to stay close to God.” He then tried to evade justice by taking himself off to Wales, where he was eventually detained two weeks after Elle’s murder.

The mild-mannered 68 year old was walking up the road to play the organ for midnight mass when two strangers battered him to death. “It was an extraordinary marriage because we were spiritually united” As a Church Army evangelist, she was used to helping other people in her community deal with heartache. But this time it was personal. “As I was sitting at Alan’s bedside, holding his hand, I suddenly realised that this was a murder.” Police previously said they believed a gunman fired shots towards the front entrance of the pub and that "minutes later, a dark-coloured vehicle, possibly an A-class Mercedes, was seen to leave the pub car park". A man from Heswall and a woman from Tranmere, both 23, have been arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to commit murder and both have now been released on bail. There are six, seven to eight suspects all who have read and handled the manuscript throughout the night, though none of them took it.

He is charged with the murder of Elle Edwards, 26, and the attempted murder of two other individuals. He is also charged with inflicting grievous bodily harm on three further individuals. A Wife in A Million by Val McDermid- in which a disgruntled wife is, instead of handing out holiday cheer, out slipping a little arsenic into grocery items and DS Maggie Staniforth is on the case and dealing with her own disgruntled wife. Very cleverly told. The Lion's Tooth by Edmund Crispin- in which the solution to kidnap for ransom & the bludgeoning of a nun lies in something hidden in translation. this one wasn't set at Christmas but during the hard winter.A statement from Edwards’ family following her death paid tribute to the “beautiful” woman. “She had this way about her that as soon as you met her, you just instantly fell in love with her. Everyone that met Elle knew how special she was,” it said. Itis discovered the picture was left as a gift from a distant family member who replaced there - now known - ‘fake’ painting with a real one. Following the trial, Mr Edwards hopes for a ‘new future’ in which Ms Edwards can leave a positive legacy. Rumpole and the Spirit of Christmas by John Mortimer- in which Rumpole has a rough go with a spirit of Christmas and it extracts its price in court. All the usual wit is on display here and that alone made it worth reading. This story takes place in the lead up to Christmas & the scene is set in the first line of the story.
