| It was the winter of discontent in Britain, and as the dead lay unburied and foul-smelling garbage collected in the streets, the death of a black woman known to her neighbors as "Mad Annie" was causing unprecedented commotion. The uproar was spearheaded by a woman named Mrs. Ranelagh, who had the misfortune of discovering Annie's body in the gutter. She claimed that Annie had died without speaking. She said that she'd never seen Annie before. Yet she was sure that Annie had been murdered. So why, some 20 long years later, is Mrs. Ranelagh still seeking the truth about a mad woman's murder -- unless her reasons are personal?
