The dramatic disappearance and subsequent death of socialite and art critic William Bond Walshe when his pleasure cruiser The Owl was wrecked off the Devon coast was neither an accident, nor a random killing. It was a premeditated and precise act of murder planned by much sought after criminal Glenys Hasting. Glenys had fled New Zealand with hundreds of millions of NZ dollars accrued by a syndicate of criminals who themselves were unable to avoid the law before paying the ultimate price for their horrific deeds. Glenys ran free and with INTERPOL still seeking her after five years she settled in Torquay England under a new identity. There the weakness of the flesh introduced her to high flying Billy Walshe who excelled in filling her sexual needs. In doing so he revealed to her a dark side to his character that when exposed by her through media associates shocked the world. Glenys was ready to repay her debt to society and a night of hi-jinks on the high seas aboard Billy’s luxury cruiser provided the opportunity she required to execute her daring scheme. She constantly told her peers she was not a bad girl, but her new mission in life was one to make Billy Walshe pay for the injustices and obscenities inflicted on her family in her youth by his peers. Pay he did. Satisfied with the results of her actions Glenys’s complacency led to a chink in her armour which when exploited by top CIB detective Abe Griffin had her blazing a trail of retreat through the West End of London and the Home Counties. With Detective Abe hard in pursuit she continued to switch identities and struggle with personal afflictions to which she accepted there was no remedy. At peace with herself once more and with Billy held to account for his sins Glenys was able to concentrate on the altruistic facet of her nature. Her final act was to dispose of the many millions of dollars available to her to deserving causes. It was no easy task to give away money anonymously. As her race against time became her final one she returned to her homeland of New Zealand where she made one final effort to prove to the law that indeed, she was not a bad girl.
