Richard Miles, a man of routine in the quiet village of Newtown, was brutally murdered on March 10, 1993, his body found in his garden with a knife in his chest. His final weeks hinted at distress—withdrawn from friends, distracted at work—as if haunted by an unseen burden. The investigation uncovered mysterious figures: a man storming from Richard’s house in January, a woman near the scene, an abandoned bicycle, and a sinister presence on the towpath. Speculation ran wild—was he involved in something illicit, or was it a crime of passion? The murder remains unsolved, leaving Newtown haunted by unanswered questions and the lingering presence of an unknown killer.
