Resumen del Editor

Bloomsbury presents The Peepshow by Kate Summerscale, read by the Olivier Award-winning and BAFTA-nominated actress Nicola Walker.

FROM BRITAIN'S TOP-SELLING TRUE CRIME WRITER AND THE #1 BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF THE SUSPICIONS OF MR WHICHER...

‘Once more, Kate Summerscale shatters our preconceptions of a classic crime’ Val McDermid

London, 1953. Police discover the bodies of three young women hidden in a wall at 10 Rillington Place, a dingy terrace house in Notting Hill. On searching the building, they find another body beneath the floorboards, then an array of human bones in the garden. But they have already investigated a double murder at 10 Rillington Place, three years ago, and the killer was hanged. Did they get the wrong man?

A nationwide manhunt is launched for the tenant of the ground-floor flat, a softly spoken former policeman named Reg Christie. Star reporter Harry Procter chases after the scoop. Celebrated crime writer Fryn Tennyson Jesse begs to be assigned to the case. The story becomes an instant sensation, and with the relentless rise of the tabloid press the public watches on like never before. Who is Christie? Why did he choose to kill women, and to keep their bodies near him? As Harry and Fryn start to learn the full horror of what went on at Rillington Place, they realise that Christie might also have engineered a terrible miscarriage of justice in plain sight.

In this riveting true story, Kate Summerscale mines the archives to uncover the lives of Christie’s victims, the tabloid frenzy that their deaths inspired, and the truth about what happened inside the house.

'A gripping account of murder, misogyny and spectatorship' Sarah Waters, author of Fingersmith

'A forensic reappraisal of a grimy episode in postwar British history . . . Shocking, impeccably researched, lucidly written and always utterly compelling' Graeme Macrae Burnet, author of His Bloody Project

'The queen of true crime' Laura Thompson, author of Take Six Girls

Reseñas de la Crítica

'A crystalline, compelling account of a notorious crime ... Seamlessly blends the pleasures of a good novel with the enlightenment of masterly reportage. A gem' (Dominic Nolan, author of VINE STREET)
