In this anthology of true crime tales, editor Walter Wood interviews those who were touched by the crimes recounted, sometimes as an acquaintance of the deceased or criminal or in the course of their professional duties. This work provides a personal look at some of the most sensational crimes and scandals of late 19th and early 20th century Britain. (Summary by Nullifidian)
Customer Reviews
HAUNTING, FASCINATING, UNIQUE
I love it. It's a typical librivox recording in that the quality and overall effect of the narrators varies from chapter to chapter with some being better than others. After the first minute or two, I tend to get lost in the story and forget all about the narrators. There stories are a fascinating look into the darker side of yesteryear. I wish there were more volumes of these stories.
Gripping stories that won't let go
Largely forgotten, but nevertheless true, these accounts of real-life crimes are utterly intriguing and absorbing. In fact, I was up the entire night listening to them. Truth is indeed, stranger than fiction.
