On a spring night in 1988, a woman rang a Lancashire police station saying someone had killed her husband. On arrival the police found three women beside the body of a murdered man. The women seemed confused as to who the dead man’s “wife” actually was. For the previous 15 years, all three of them in the house—an elderly woman and her two middle-aged daughters—had worn Tommy Thompson’s wedding ring. This book tells the family’s story.
