Serial Killers: Hunting Britons and Their Victims, 1960-2006

? Looks at all serial murders in Britain from the 'gay murders' of Michael Copeland in 1960 to the Ipswich murders of 2006 ? Throughout, the work follows events from a social and victim-related perspective With vast experience of working with serial killers behind him and from his studies, criminologist and ex-prison governor David Wilson writes that we are not all at-risk everyday from what he terms 'hunting Britons', rather it is people from a variety of vulnerable groups: the elderly, women involved in prostitution, gay men, runaways, 'throwaways' and children and kids moving from place to place. The book includes the following killers' victims: The Ipswich murders of 2006, Peter Sutcliffe (The Yorkshire Ripper), Dennis Nilsen, Harold Shipman, Fred West, Rosemary West, Beverly Allitt, Patrick Mackay, Kenneth Erskine, Colin Ireland, Peter Moore, Michael Copeland, Ian Brady, Myra Hindley, Robert Black, Mark Martin, Donald Neilson, Peter Dinsdale, Hall/Kitto and other murderers who are not included in the strict definition 'Serial Killer'. Reviews 'The clue to this very well written book is on the front cover. Across it is a list of victims, some named, others identified by description only, who have suffered at the hands of British serial killers since 1960': The Justices' Clerk 'A stunning success': Prison Service Journal 'A timely - and because of its quality - a significant contribution to the field': Homicide Studies (USA) 'Lifts the lid on the social, institutional, political and economic contexts that make serial killing possible': John Muncie, Professor of Criminology at The Open University. 'An interesting and very readable book': Keith Soothill , Lancaster University. 'Very well written . tackles the subject . from a fresh perspective. It will undoubtedly stir up a great deal of debate': Roger Hood, All Souls College, Oxford University.
