In 1931 Liverpool, a mysterious phone call about a business opportunity sent William Herbert Wallace to a non-existent address. He returned home to find his wife, Julia, murdered inside their locked house. With no forced entry and a timeline that baffled investigators, police zeroed in on William, believing the call was a fabricated alibi. He was convicted of murder, but in a stunning reversal, the verdict was overturned, leaving the case unsolved. This is the story of one of Britain’s most enduring and debated locked-room mysteries, a puzzle that continues to fascinate armchair detectives nearly a century later.

On June 1982, 20-year-old Kelly Bergh Dove was working the graveyard shift at a gas station in Harrisonburg, Virginia. At 2:27 AM, she called police to report a suspicious person outside. Minutes later, at 2:30 AM, Kelly was abducted while on the phone with the dispatcher. Her case has remained unsolved for over 40 years. Her body has never been found. Kelly's sister Elaine worked with us to share her story.
