The Ability to Kill (2012)
“Gregsten was a happily married man of thirty-four with two young children. Miss Storie was twenty-two and single. They were both members of the Laboratory staff motor club, and regularly took part in the club rallies.
Shortly before eight o’clock on the evening of Tuesday, August 22, they set out with maps and notebooks in Gregsten’s car to survey the route of an eighty-mile rally which they were organising for the following Sunday. The car was a grey, four-door Morris Minor saloon.
Just after ...eight o’clock, they stopped briefly for a drink at the Old Station Inn, Taplow and then drove on along the route as far as Dorney Reach. There, they stopped just off the road by the edge of a cornfield. It was about 8.45 then and beginning to get dark. They had been there about twenty minutes, discussing the route and the timings and making their notes, when there was a tap on the window beside Gregsten.
What happened to the car and its occupants during the next ten hours was described by counsel at a hearing before the Ampthill Magistrates’ Court in November.MoreLess
