Monica Wellerová se ve své práci zaměřuje na odhalování skrytých pravd a přehlížených aspektů lidských příběhů, zejména v oblasti true crime. Její hluboký zájem o nespravedlnost ji vede k pečlivému zkoumání archivních materiálů a k odhalování nových důkazů, které mohou změnit pohled na historické události. Wellerová také uplatňuje svůj umělecký cit v oblasti fotografie, kde zachycuje syrovou krásu krajiny a portrétů, často s důrazem na tradiční techniky. Její spisovatelský styl je pronikavý a odhaluje složité motivace a okolnosti, které formovaly životy jejích protagonistů.
On 9 November 1966, popular GP Dr Helen Davidson was battered to death in dense woodland while birdwatching and exercising her dog a few miles from her Buckinghamshire home. Fifty years later, amateur sleuth and author Monica Weller set about solving the murder - without the help of the prohibited files.
"Fifty years ago, Ruth Ellis was the last woman to be hanged in Britain. She was convicted for shooting her lover, David Blakely, and the notorious affair was filmed as Dance with a Stranger: the story of a peroxide tart who killed her man out of jealousy." "At Ruth's trial, the jurors took just 23 minutes to find her guilty, after a case substantially lacking in forensic or ballistic analysis. Now after fifty years, Ruth Ellis's sister has revealed crucial evidence about the third man in the case - the man who she believes pulled the trigger for the fatal shots and the man who was part of a web of British secret agents and double agents into which Ruth Ellis had fallen. At the heart of these new findings is the startling evidence that Ruth was being run by Dr Stephen Ward, a decade before his name became public in the infamous John Profumo-Christine Keeler scandal."--Jacket
