Summary
The reverberations from Fred West's crimes continue to this day. The story never dies.
West was perhaps one of Britain's most evil, feared serial killers. His horrifying compulsion to kidnap, rape and torture his victims before murdering them showed a savagery and cruelty that can barely be believed. His 'House of Horrors' at 25 Cromwell Street, Gloucester, became a burial ground for the women who fell into his hands.
This new publication of Geoffrey Wansell's iconic, best-selling true-crime masterpiece comes 30 years after West was arrested, in 1992. Dead by suicide by 1994, he never truly faced justice for the 12 murders he was charged with.
Wansell, chosen as West's official biographer, gained exclusive access to all West's police interviews, prison diaries, papers, solicitor interviews—and his private collection of video tapes, as well as all the interviews given by his wife, Rose West.
Once and for all, he reveals the full story of Fred and Rose West's lives and crimes, in a chilling book that sets the standard for exploring the minds of our most feared serial killers—up close and personal.

Real insight
Really feel for the wests bairns growing up in that environment and that they had their childhood stole. And just goes to show that these horrible people can get away with such horrible things for such along time. Really made me thoughtful for all the victims.

Harrowing but insightful
The reader was great and made it easy to listen to the tone, although the content is harsh it’s true and doesn’t hold back in facts

Excellent
I have read many books on the Wests. However, this book reveals a fascinating insight into their deprived and dangerous lives. Highly recommended.

Unbelievably heartbreaking for the victims
I don’t even know how to put into words the heartbreaking torture the victims of the wests must of gone through I was 12 when I first seen on the tv the news of the police digging to try see what (or who) they could find no one was expecting what was found !!! Everyone will have there own memories from back then but the one thing everyone will have in common is how are hearts broke for the victims and wantin justice for them.
