Hildegart Rodruez (pictured top right) of Spain is known as the Red Virgin. Now, a much larger audience will be introduced to her life in an Amazon TV drama starring Najwa Nimri and Alba Planas (both left). Aurora Rodriguez (bottom right) climbed into her 18-year-old daughter Hildegart's bedroom and raged over her, clutching the revolver she held to shield them against predatory men at dawn on a summer's morning. She fired the sleeping girl three times in the head and once in the heart, slowly and with a keen eye. Then she left the house and walked to the nearby home of a lawyer, causing him to confess to the murder. According to H G Wells (top center), killing her child was the last desperate option for a loving mother, and it was the only way to keep Hildegart from being abducted by the novelist, who was reportedly working for the British secret services.
