Just beneath the dark underbelly of a quiet Texas town, lurks a serial killer who sadistically preys on innocent victims. His debauchery and madness remain hidden behind the facade of "normality." Five women have mysteriously disappeared, their bodies butchered and dumped down an abandoned oil well, a sixth savagely beaten, but alive. Detectives Rick Miller and Dave Alison leave no stone unturned in their quest to find out who's responsible. Meanwhile, death stalks more victims

Spreading death wherever he goes, a psychotic killer leaves body parts scattered across five states, changing modus operandi in a diabolical attempt to throw the police off his trail. In Texas, Detective Dave Alison believes the "Trash Bag Killer," now sitting on death row for those crimes, could be innocent. What follows is a dramatic twist in a five-year-old serial murder case that could seal the fate of the real killer. Can a police dragnet finally put an end to a "copycat" killer whose body count stands at 17?

This report explores the current state of end-of-life care policy and practice in the UK. It focuses in particular on the experiences of older people and incorporates their views and the views of carers. Drawing on a comprehensive literature review, analysis of data from an ESRC-funded study, and the outcomes of a consultation exercise with older people hosted by Help the Aged, the report identifies the range of patterns and circumstances of death and dying In old age; outlines the current policy and practice context; compares the experiences of older people who receive specialist palliative care and those who do not; and explores key issues in older people's accounts of death, dying and bereavement, including their practical, social and spiritual concerns. The issues raised in the report will feed into current debates such as those around palliative health and end-of-life care, and right-to-die legislation.
