Dressed to Kill

Written by Patricia Hall

Narrated by Julie Maisey

It’s 1963. A new band called the Rolling Stones is beginning to make its mark and the mini-skirt is coming into fashion. For young Liverpudlian photographer Kate O’Donnell, it’s an exciting time to be in the capital especially as she’s on secondment to an up-and-coming fashion photographer’s studio. But there’s a darker side to 1960s London, Kate discovers, when the naked, battered body of a teenage prostitute is found amongst the rubbish bins behind a Soho jazz club and it turns out the victim was a former model at the studio where Kate’s working. When a second young model disappears, Kate enlists her friend DS Harry Barnard’s help to find out exactly what’s going on.
