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.
