Özet
 This is the shocking story of a doctor who was addicted to murder: a man who wickedly abused the trust of his patients with horrifying results.

He was a pillar of the community: attentive, kind, never too busy to chat. Yet behind this charming facade lay the world's most prolific serial killer, with at least 200 victims. Small, bespectacled Dr Shipman was making house calls - and then committing murder with bloodcurdling expertise and professionalism. He saw himself as playing God.

This sensational audiobook looks behind the man and reveals how, throughout his 25-year campaign of evil, Shipman continued to be a doting husband and father, trusted and adored by the majority of his patients. Evil Beyond Belief looks at how he was able to get away with murder for so long and - most important of all - why he was driven by a twisted, insatiable lust for death. It also looks at the events leading up to Shipman's suicide and examines the effect that this dramatic event had on the families of his numerous victims.

An excellent book. Lots of insight into this case. Well narrated. Would recommend to all.

Good book. Detailed and very interesting

It took me a while to get into this book, as I had just come from a very person book on self discovery by another author - so switching to a very matter of fact style of writing was a bit jarring at first. This book is more like a very long newspaper article, and while it attempts to paint a picture, a lot of it (especially the first half) is “Fred Shipman did such and such”, “Fred Shipman said this”, “Fred Shipman went to this place” - in many respects it’s like a list of events with a few deeper considerations added in-between. This isn’t a criticism though, it’s just something I noticed. The amount of detail is commendable, the choice of narrator is engaging and by the second half I was totally hooked - I listened to the last 4 hours in a single day! I highly recommend this listen, it’s truly fascinating and the final paragraph of the last chapter made me gasp out loud.

Fascinating, but very matter-of-fact

The author paints a credible tale of Dr. Shipman's descent into murderousness, giving insight into how it happened.
Though: I can't escape feeling the author used speculation.

Can't tell about historical accuracy, grizzly tale

Very thorough account of Shipman's life and the lead up to his murders with an engaging narrator. The only mild complaint I have is the frequent references to women's appearances, especially Primrose. I feel like most of the time it's not relevant to the story and is a bit jarring. Also use of words such as 'spinster' or refence to a victims son's "blonde wife". Unnecessary.

Interesting and detailed

There’s something very Garth Marenghi about this audiobook, both in its writing & performance but it’s all the more enjoyable for it.

Enjoyable
