British True Crime

Ein kurzes Wort der Warnung. Die Kurzgeschichten über wahre Verbrechen in diesem Buch sind unvorstellbar schockierend. Die meisten Nachrichtenartikel und Fernsehsendungen über wahre Verbrechen übergehen die dramatischen Details der wirklich beunruhigenden Verbrechen.

As Britain emerges into the mid-20th century, change is afoot. Cities are beginning to shift from smog-filled industrial hubs to more efficient metropolitan centres of commerce and, despite the country once again being blighted by war, society is beginning to shift towards a more modern, forward-thinking era. But change is not only limited to regular men and women; under the shifting tides of development, the criminal underbelly, too, is evolving, anxious for new avenues of exploitation and expansion.

The Cost of Trust is a shocking work of investigative journalism that unveils the true extent of this medical atrocity. Authored by Deborah Douglas with writer Tracy King – also a casualty of Paterson – the book provides an in-depth look at the devastating impact of Paterson’s actions and the work it took to bring him to justice.

Bernard O’Mahoney takes the helm once again as he interviews some of the most notorious ‘faces’ in recent history, taking the viewer on a brand-new journey that brings the story of crime up to date. The best-selling true-crime author and former Essex Boys gang member travels to Liverpool, Birmingham, Belfast, Dublin and Essex and guides us through tales of drugs, gangs, political terrorism and, ultimately, consequences.
