The murder of Sheila Anderson (1955/1956 – 7 February 1983) was the 1983 murder of a sex worker in Edinburgh which has been described as "one of Scotland's most notorious unsolved murders". 27-year-old mother Anderson was found run over, possibly repeatedly, on the promenade at Gypsy Brae after she had sex with a client there. Anderson was known to have been confrontational with clients and for having stood in front of their cars if they refused to pay, leading investigators to conclude that she may have been run over after such a disagreement. Forensics showed that the killer's car was painted red and also would have been heavily damaged by the act, with police still appealing for anyone who remembers their partner suspiciously coming home with a damaged car around 1983 to come forward. Appeals have also been made for information from anyone who was given a sexually transmitted disease by their partner around this time, since it was found that there was a 50% chance the killer would have had to seek treatment for one after the murder. Anderson's missing bag was found dumped after the killing at a car park by the A1 road going south from Edinburgh into England, suggesting that her killer may have travelled back to England after the murder. A full DNA profile of the killer was isolated in 2009, leading to renewed hopes that the killer could be caught and new appeals on Crimewatch. The case has also been noted for the long-term impact it had nationally in terms of changing police attitudes and procedures in regards to sex workers, and the case continues to receive publicity.

Davidson's Mains is a former village and now a district in the north-west of Edinburgh, Scotland. It is adjacent to the districts of Barnton, Cramond, Silverknowes, Blackhall and Corbiehill/House O'Hill.

Craigcrook is a suburb of Edinburgh, Scotland, best known for Craigcrook Castle. It is fairly affluent, and lies on the north east slopes of Corstorphine Hill. It is near Clerwood, and Blackhall. Davidson's Mains lies to the north, separated from the district by the A90 - Queensferry Road. Apart from Craigcrook Castle and a few isolated farm buildings the area was featureless until 1920, when it became part of the several open lands (including Craigentinny and Drylaw) acquired by the then Edinburgh Corporation and used for low density bungalow development. The low density and distance from the city centre renders the area difficult to support local small shops and public transport. There are no supermarkets whatsoever within the district, but the adjoining districts of Davidson's Mains and Blackhall (Craigleith) cater to local needs.
