Footprints: 1: The Last Post

on BBC Radio 4 FM

Writer and criminal lawyer Frances Fyfield returns with another series that follows the trail of evidence in three investigations.

The discovery of a set of bones in the fields of Picardy prompts the Commonwealth War Graves Commission and the Ministry of Defence into an 18-month investigation. Their job was to discover the identity of the soldier who was killed on the first day of the Battle of the Somme at the scene of an explosion so large it was said to be heard in London.
