In a work which blends factual evidence with folklore, superstition, hearsay and the imagination, these poems explore the Worcestershire murder mystery ‘Who Put Bella in the Wych Elm?’ Plotting their way through reports, records, maps and the make-believe, they examine the evidence, theories and people involved in the case. Questions beget question, and answers may hold more mystery than truth, as Bella’s story continues to leave us lost in the woods.
