Summary

Best-selling writer and criminologist Christopher Berry-Dee turns his attention to a new kind of victim: the wives or partners of serial murderers who remained unaware of exactly who they had fallen for until after their other half's arrest or, in some cases, conviction, for multiple murders.

Sonia Sutcliffe first discovered that her husband, Peter, was leading a secret existence as 'the Yorkshire Ripper' only when he was arrested.

The wife of the 'Hillside Strangler' only learned of her husband's crimes when state police smashed down her door in search of him.

On finding out the truth, these innocents often experience a strange kind of guilt for not having recognised the killer in their home, as well as having to face the grim reality of betrayal and deceit.

Christopher Berry-Dee speaks directly to killers and their oblivious loved ones to get inside the minds of the men and women who fall for murderers.

Same

Old thing just looked at crimes from a different angle. Wish he would write about newer crimes.

True crime with a tad of sarcasm

As long as you like true crimes mixed with a tad of sarcasm, this is a great listen. Maybe not at night for the fainter hearted of us. But for those who like to try and find out about the human psyche and why murderers murder, this book is worth it.

👍 Great

Yes, these cases have been done to death elsewhere, but I really enjoyed this look from "the other side" The psychopaths partners story...
how did they NOT KNOW.

LOVING CBDee style of writing and having done several of his books, the (apparent) seamless connection between Colin Mace narrating these books is... so easy to listen to & very absorbing.
Brilliant combination of pen & narration!

Embarrassing and exploitative

I found myself physically wincing throughout. An embarrassment of childish taunting and male bravado.
