LOCKERBIE: The Investigation That Still Divides the World
About
On a cold December evening in 1988 PanAm Flight 103 disappeared from the skies above Southern Scotland.
Thirty eight minutes after leaving Heathrow Airport, the Boeing 747 exploded over Lockerbie, killing 270 innocent people and leaving investigators to confront one of the largest murder enquiries in British history.
For nearly four decades the case has remained the subject of legal challenges, political debate, intelligence disclosures, and continuing investigations.
What really happened?
Award-winning investigative author Bill Stewart examines the evidence from the beginning - following the investigation from the frozen fields of Lockerbie through forensic laboritories, courtroom, diplomatic negotiations, and modern historical research.
Rather than arguing for one theory, this book carefully distinguishes between established fact, courtroom evidence, historical interpretation, and the questions that remain unanswered.
Meticulously researched and written with clarity, balance, and respect, for the victims, Lockerbie invites readers to examine one of modern history’s most significant criminal investigations for themselves.
