Time of Death

When a Devonshire fisherman hauled in his nets on July 28 1996, he made a gruesome discovery: among that day's catch was a dead body. There was nothing to identify the man's body except a Rolex watch and a small maple leaf tattoo on his hand. After finally identifying the man from the watch serial number, police discovered why he had never been reported missing: the murderer had assumed his victim's identity.

A real life Hollywood thriller unfolded as they pieced together the relationship between the real Robert Platt and his murderer, a man called Albert Walker who had a long history of financial fraud, embezzlement and deception. On the run from Canadian authorities and on Interpol's Most Wanted list for many years, the conman and killer was finally brought to justice by the determined team of Devon & Cornwall detectives.
