We are so looking forward to chatting with author and historical sleuth, Philippa Langley, about her book "The Princes in the Tower: Solving History's Greatest Cold Case" and her discovery of the grave of King Richard III in 2012. Join us as she discusses her research methods, her team, her findings, and how solving this cold case effects our understanding of the royal monarchy (in the 1500s, of course).

About The Missing Princes Project:

Following years of intensive research by Langley and her international team, she reveals the findings of The Missing Princes Project. Using investigative methodology, it places the most enduring of mysteries about what happened to the 'Princes in the Tower' under a forensic microscope, unearthing an astonishing untold story of survival and uncovering remarkable new archival discoveries of proof of life. It is the first time that police cold case investigation analysis has been applied to a centuries-old historical mystery, leaving no stone unturned, and the results are extraordinary.
