The fire-ravaged country home of millionaire Christopher Foster was the centre of a huge murder probe today after his wife was killed by a gunshot to the head and the remains of a third body was discovered.

The focus of the whole country has turned to the small idyllic hamlet of Maesbrook, since the blaze tore through Osbaston House and its surrounding buildings on Tuesday.

Friends and family of the Fosters are desperately waiting for any developments as the mystery behind the events at the £1.15 million home unfolds.

Anne Parr, landlady of the Black Horse pub in Maesbrook, gives her view on the tragedy to engulf the community.
