'Absolutely gripping. Impeccably researched and written with the
pace and narrative drive of a thriller, but attentive too to the
dignity of the victims.' - Daragh Carville, creator of ITV's The
BayThe true story of the shocking 1930s murder case, and the
revolutionary investigation that changed forensics forever.
Lancaster, 1935. In a jealous rage, Dr Buck Ruxton kills his wife,
Isabella, and their children's nanny, Mary, before dismembering the
bodies in the bathtub. When walkers discover the remains scattered
in a ravine in the Scottish Borders, police are confronted with a
gruesome jigsaw puzzle that they must piece together - not only to
give the women their names back, but also to catch their killer.
Using new research, Jeremy Craddock tells the full story of this
landmark case in British criminal history. The Jigsaw Murders
brings to life Dr Ruxton, the investigators, the legal figures, and
silent witnesses Isabella and Mary, recreating the dramatic scenes
that shook the world.
