Cambridgeshire Murders

This book has been written by Alison Bruce and is due for publication from 22nd September 2005.

Contained within the pages of this book are the stories behind some of the most notorious murders in Cambridgeshire's history. The cases covered here record the county's most fascinating but least known crimes, as well as famous murders that gripped not just Cambridgeshire but the whole nation. From the mysterious barn fire at Burwell that killed 76 people to the unsolved murder of Cambridge shopkeeper Alice Lawton; from poisoning in St Neots the murder of a 15-year-old drummer boy whose ghost haunted the killer and drove him to confess, this is a collection of the county's most dramatic and interesting criminal cases.

Alison Bruce has gone back to original records and documents to uncover the truth about these extraordinary crimes. Using contemporary illustrations and tracing the stories through the words of those who were actually there on the ground, she re-creates the drama of case and courtroom. Cambridgeshire Murders is a unique re-examination of the darker side of the county's past.

Approximately 65,000 words and 70 photographs and illustrations.
