When the Hangman Came: A true murder story in Gibraltar in 1930 ( Joe L. Caruana MBE)

Ernest Opisso was the last civillian to be hanged for murder in the picturesque and fascinating British Colony of Gibraltar in 1930. In those days forensic science and police investigating procedures was not what it is today. A crime without a motive, a rich spinster, a deaf-dumb and lame handyman. No fingerprints of the accused, no blood stains on his clothing or shoes following the most brutal and bloody killing. A zealous Chief of Police, all combine to make this murder the mystery of the century.
