This is an absorbing, compelling and thought-provoking investigation into the minds of Britain's most notorious serial killers which provides the answers to some unanswered questions and raises others never before asked. The author goes behind the published facts to provide a remarkable insight into their crimes, victims, capture, trial and sanity with many never before published facts. Who were the three prime suspects for the Jack the Ripper killings listed in a private memo by the Assistant Police Commission, Melville Macnaghten, and why does that memo exclude one obvious suspect? What role, if any, did American serial killers Dr. Thomas Neill Cream and Dr. H. H. Holmes play in the Ripper killings? What was the true extent of involvement by Myra Hindley in the Moors Murders? Was she really led on by Ian Brady or was she the chief instigator of several murders? Read a transcript of the torture tape and learn how it was consistently misrepresented. Read the evidence which proves that the Yorkshire Ripper, Peter Sutcliffe, deliberately lied when he sought exoneration for his crimes by claiming that he heard voices in his head telling him he was on a divine mission from God to eradicate prostitutes. Should Dennis Nilsen have been found guilty but insane at the time of his crimes and is it now appropriate that he be set free? Who was the significant Satanist involved with devil worshippers Fred and Rose West and why, despite the substantial evidence now available is he and other named people not being prosecuted? Read the defense blunders during the trial which irreparably damaged Rose West's expectations of being acquitted. Just how many young women were tortured and murdered by Robert "The Wolfman" Howard? Read about how he was protected by certain members of the Royal Ulster Constabulary on the basis he was a paid informer. This is a fascinating and comprehensive analysis of Britain's real life serial killers which reads like a thriller, except these crimes really happened.
