In the early hours of February 18th 1975, a young woman was struck by one or more vehicles on the A1 near Baldock, North Hertfordshire.
The person who was driving the vehicle that killed her has never been identified and they have never come forward.
A witness stated that she had said that she was heading for London and that she spoke with a foreign accent. We believe her name may have been Odile and she may have been from France – either Paris or the north of the country.
She had fair hair and hazel eyes and a few distinguishing features: a scar on her right leg and a piercing in her right ear.
She wore a distinctive brown Afghan coat, a brown leather waistcoat, a white cotton 'Chelsea Girl' blouse, a white cotton smock with a floral pattern and imitation lace, black Prisu jeans (a French brand), and a chiffon lace scarf.
