The World's End Murders The Inside Story – hinnat ja saatavuus

From the author of best seller, Ruxton: The First Modern Murder, comes another deep dive into one of the most notorious cases in Scottish Criminal History. Tom Wood’s The World’s End Murders: The Inside Story is a new look at a well-known story. In this book, Wood offers the detailed analysis only one of the original investigators could give, and reveals how over nearly four decades, detectives and scientists struggled to deliver justice. The horrific killing of two Edinburgh teenagers in October 1977 sparked a nationwide manhunt that turned into one of Britain’s longest and most famous murder investigations. The book tells the story of two innocent young girls, Helen Scott and Christine Eadie, and of the extraordinary police investigation over almost four decades that eventually led to the discovery of links to their deaths with Angus Sinclair, one of Scotland’s most notorious murderers and sex offenders. Acquitted after a controversial trial in 2007, changes in the law and new, cutting-edge forensic evidence meant that Sinclair found himself in the court again, and in 2014 he was finally held to account for the notorious World’s End murders. But this is not a gruesome tale of violent death – the families of Helen and Christine have suffered long enough. It is a story of heroes – of the families of the two girls who, with quiet dignity, have carried an unimaginable burden down the years, and of the police officers, the support staff and the scientists who persisted in their investigations and never gave up. This is the inside story of the World’s End murders.”
