Summary

The dramatic, compelling bestselling true story of how a serial killer was finally unmasked after evading justice for more than twenty years

Now a major TV series starring Luke Evans

1980s. In the beautiful, unspoiled landscape of Pembrokeshire, a serial killer is at large: two double murders; an assault; the rape and assault of two teenagers - all potentially the work of one man.

This is the fascinating true story of a brutal murderer and the detectives who worked the cold case for six years in order to bring him to justice. Combining cutting edge forensic techniques with old fashioned detective work, a team of detectives worked to build a case against their prime suspect. But it was a race against time: would he strike again?

No one could predict that the killer's appearance on a gameshow would provide bizarre but crucial evidence.

The operation is now recognised as one of the greatest cold case reviews ever undertaken in the UK.

The killer is now serving a "life means life" sentence.

Perfect for fans of The Serpent

I grew up in Johnston and Milford Haven. My father went fishing on Cooper's boat a number of times and brought him to our house to play cards.


He was a decent man to us, so to know he was the man who did these crimes is especially chilling, for we would never of imagined it.

May he rot in jail.

at this point of the story it is 2008. it's the chapter just after they interviewed Cooper. you say he visited a jeweller on the 5th of July 1989 that was 50 yards away from an Natwest ATM he used on the day of the the murder 29th of June 2012.

From my understanding, that's impossible. He has been in prison since the late 90s, and no murder took place in 2012 (as that's the future). I'm sure you meant 29th of June 1989, but Lord knows where 2012 came from. This trial was well over and done with by 2012, and he got a whole life tarrif

Appropriately narrated at a brisk and straightforward pace; if only all readers narrated this way, it held my attention, don't blink or you miss it. There was no ear-splitting or sudden loudness, accents or "performance" to interfere with listening with ear pods, so different from performing onstage or radio. One criticism would be that it could have been just very slightly slower but not much. The events are horrific, a criminal with an extremely untidy MO who didn't consider ever being caught and then he was.

Well told
