About this listen

In the early hours of 7th August 1985, five members of the Bamber family were shot dead with a .22-calibre Anschutz rifle.

Sheila Caffell, who was known to have struggled with mental illness, was at first thought to have murdered her twin sons and adoptive parents and then to have turned the gun on herself. Forensic evidence, however, told a different story and raised such questions as how Sheila could have received two shots in an act of suicide. A year later it was Jeremy Bamber, the only survivor, who was convicted of the callous murders of his entire family. He is currently serving a life sentence but continues to protest his innocence.

In this the first full account of the case, Roger Wilkes bases his story around specially commissioned forensic research, personal interviews with Jeremy Bamber and previously undisclosed accounts and witness statements. Extraordinary and shocking, it is a story that would defy the imagination of fiction writers.

I have just finished listening to this book and I found it amazing I actually remember the case very well as I was 26 at the time but there was always a point that I had trouble understanding and that was why did two jury members think Jeremy innocent when ten thought otherwise whilst listening through the book Roger Wilkes explained why this was because he was very charming and could convince some women that he was innocent it probably also explains why some have and still do continue to agree in his innocence.
I have also read Carol-Anne Lee's book and though hers was very good this seemed to explain even more which left me in no doubt that he is quilty of the crimes he has been convicted of. I found Colin Mace excellent at reading the book as he put so much life into even using accents for the various individuals that came up in the book like a Welsh accent for 'Taff'Jones and others it really made the book come alive all in all a great book highly recommended.
