Description

But how can a self-respecting writer like you be spending over a year writing a book about such a ghastly case as the Moors Murders" A recurrent question to which Emlyn Williams' answer has been Anything that happens to, or inside, human beings has to be written about'.Ever since his play Night Must Fall, one of the most fascinating studies of a murderer ever written, he has wondered if a real-life murder case would ever present itself which would challenge him to write a book about it with the required combination of accuracy and imaginative understanding. And here it is, in a setting of Lancashire suburb ad countryside with which the author was completely familiar as a child and adolescent: the reason why, time and time again, he is able to communicate, side by side with horror, the warmth and friendliness of the families caught up in these ghastly events.It is an uncanny feat of storytelling, involving a marvellous battle of wits between the police and the criminals, which is indeed, in the right sense of the word, shocking.
