Sir Harry Oakes was murdered in his bed on the night of 7th July 1943, as rain swept the island of New Providence in the Bahamas. Probably few would have noticed it as World War 2 raged and tens of thousands of people died that same day... but Sir Harry was one of the richest men in the world, it was said - and he was a friend of the Duke of Windsor, too, in exile for his sins.
Who killed him? It seemed obvious to the detectives investigating the murder. The investigation was conducted poorly - perhaps even dishonestly - and the chief subject walked free. But someone murdered Sir Harry - who was it?
