In the early hours of 7th August 1985, five members of the Bamber
family were shot dead with a .22-calibre Anschutz rifle. Sheila
Caffell, who was known to have struggled with mental illness, was
at first thought to have murdered her twin sons and adoptive
parents and then to have turned the gun on herself. Forensic
evidence, however, told a different story and raised such questions
as how Sheila could have received two shots in an act of suicide. A
year later it was Jeremy Bamber, the only survivor, who was
convicted of the callous murders of his entire family. He is
currently serving a life sentence, but continues to protest his
innocence. In this the first full account of the case, Roger Wilkes
bases his story around specially commissioned forensic research,
personal interviews with Jeremy Bamber and previously undisclosed
accounts and witness statements. Extraordinary and shocking, it is
a story that would defy the imagination of fiction writers.
