## Description

In a time before the science of crime became the solving of it, a detective relied on an open eye, a keen ear and the dogged pursuit of any and every lead. Here in Victorian England, the difference between innocence and guilt can all be weighed upon The Suspicions of Mr Whicher. The Murder at Road Hill HouseAdapted from Kate Summerscale’s bestselling book, a gripping true story of murder, psychological suspense and courtroom drama. On the morning of 30th June, 1860, on the edge of a sleepy Wiltshire village, three-year-old Saville Kent has disappeared from his bedroom in the mansion known as Road Hill House. When he is found brutally murdered, the case becomes a national scandal and the Home Secretary calls on Inspector Jonathan “Jack” Whicher, the much lauded ‘Prince of Sleuths’. Jack soon finds himself in another world, of lords and masters and their servants. All have something to hide, but only one knows the darkest truth of all. The Murder in Angel Lane Jack Whicher, the pioneering detective now turned “private inquiry agent”, spies a finely dressed lady in an unseemly part of town and feels honour-bound to help her. Susan Spencer is desperately searching for her vulnerable young niece and Mr Whicher’s suspicions are soon raised. As he makes inquiries of his old colleagues in Scotland Yard, he soon becomes embroiled in a dark and devious case of murder and sinister family secrets.

    The Suspicions of Mr Whicher
  

*by M***X on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 11 December 2011*

I am fortunate enough to be living only a stone's throw from where the true events of this terrible crime happened.  I bought the book and couldn't put it down.  When this film was released earlier this year (2011) I was determined to see it and was glad that I did.  There are some deviations away from the book and many key events have been omitted - but then the producers cannot be expected to condense a 24-hour book into a 2-hour movie for TV.  I was only mildly disappointed but to be quite fair I believe the essence of the story is not in how Mr Whicher, a detective from the London Metropolitan Police, was able to identify the miscreant but in fact how he had to fight through obstacles thrown in his way by the local police force (Trowbridge) who were understandably miffed by the Met having been involved in what should have been their investigation.  However, it is a very watchable movie and I am pleased to have bought it.  I shall watch it many more times; there is always something I missed the previous time.  Very watchable.  9 out of 10.

    What a find!
  

*by S***T on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 25 December 2012*

I wish I could key in "murders in Victorian England" and an endless list of films similar to this will miraculously appear. Paddy Considine is Mr Whicher, the detective sent to Wiltshire to solve the terrible murder at Road Hill House. He is under a lot of pressure by his boss to bring the murderer to justice, but he has his work cut out for him due to the narrow-minded attitude of the Police officer in charge of the investigation. In fact he does everything to get Whicher out of the way,the father of the murdered boy is no help either and when Whicher thinks he has the case solved, the key witness denies everything she had told Whicher. Considine is impeccable as Whicher, his torture at his failure - it nearly destroyed the detective, his integrity, all marvellous to see - you just cannot take your eyes off Mr Whicher. My favourite scene is when Whicher tells the murdered boy's father who really caused this horror to happen.This film is worth 5 stars for Paddy Considine's acting, although the supporting cast is also admirable, the atmosphere of Victorian England is also cleverly portrayed, social attitudes, injustice everything. My husband and myself have watched this film a few times and yes I would recommend it to lovers of crime.

    Book to film? A success for me!
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 12 June 2012*

Having read both Kate Summerscale's book and some of the negative the reviews here, I had my doubts about the success of a transfer of this murder mystery, to film. The book was extremely heavy on detail, and it surely was no easy task for this to be squeezed into under two hours of film, but on the whole it was achieved very well. The essence of the key issues in the book were all there and the plot unravelled at a pace that held the interest right to the very end. The acting was sound in all characters and the screenplay did just enough to convey the contemporary Victorian attitudes to this case that became a national obsession. I enjoyed it!
