Overview

The second book published in this series carries on from where 'The Moors Murderers' left off and continues the horrific story of the crimes perpetrated by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley and tells of what happened at their trial in 1966. We see how Brady and Hindley turned on David Smith, the 17-year-old who witnessed them murder Edward Evans and shopped them to the police the following day, by attempting to implicate him in their murders. This led to him being an almost daily victim of assaults by both locals and members of the victims' families. It tells the full story of the depths Myra Hindley went to in order to affect her escape from prison in 1973, how she eventually turned on Ian Brady and how she manipulated her way through her prison sentence until the day she died. It also shows how Ian Brady tormented the families of the victims from his prison cell. It tells the full story of how the body of Pauline Reade was recovered from Saddleworth Moor and also of the search for Keith Bennett, who to this day remains unfound. Printed here for the very first time are photographs of Myra Hindley during her incarceration released to the author from Home Office files held at the National Archives. AUTHOR: C. G. C. Cook is a true crime fanatic, who enjoys researching and re-investigating real life crimes and un-earthing new, never seen or heard before information to add to the narrative. He has a wide range of interests, including football, history, Formula 1 and natural disasters. He is from a working-class background in Kent and works at a University in London. 25 b/w illustrations
