Have you read Alison Weir's "Princes in the Tower"?
Probably, I've read several books about Richard's reign, but I can't recall that one specifically. I don't think we'll ever really know who dunnit. I don't think Richard had any compelling reason to do away with them, but who can tell? My own best guess would be that one of them - probably Edward - died of natural causes, but it couldn't be announced publicly as everyone would have believed it was murder, so rather than having just one of the boys continuing to be seen around the Tower - which would also have caused speculation - the younger one was smuggled out to a secret foster home and those in the know hoped it would eventually be a case of out of sight, out of mind.
