It is late on a cold winter night in 18th century London. A woman is on her knees beside her bed, and her apprentice is about to lock up. Someone opens the door a crack. Who is it? the woman asks. Betty!A says the apprentice. What Betty?A . Our BettyA . The girl who creeps in, dirty, dishevelled and bent over with pain, is the daughter who went missing almost a month before. Elizabeth Canning had not been seen by family or friends since New Year's Day. She told a convincing tale of kidnap, robbery and threats; of importuning for prostitution; of imprisonment and escape. Yet Elizabeth herself later stood trial for perjury in the longest case the Old Bailey had ever seen. How could this happen? And why did the Canning case become known Wherever the English Language is spokenA ?
