THE author of a new book about the unsolved murder of a Barnsley librarian is hoping it might prompt police to reinvestigate.
‘Justice for Joan, The Arundel Murder’ has been penned by best-selling author Martin Knight, delving deep beneath the headlines of the 68-year-old unsolved murder case of Barnsley woman Joan Woodhouse.
It is a case that has always held the interest of Martin, 58, who is based in Surrey, after reading about it as a teenager in a book.
“Joan Woodhouse was one of the only chapters in the book that was officially unsolved.
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
