Truly Criminal showcases a group of highly regarded writers who all share a special passion for crime, reflected in this superb collection of essays re-examining some of the most notorious cases from British criminal history. Contributors are all members of the Crime Writers' Association (CWA), including leading novelists Peter Lovesey, Andrew Taylor and Catherine Aird (winner of the 2015 CWA Diamond Dagger). There is also a bonus essay by the late great Margery Allingham about the controversial William Herbert Wallace case, which has only recently been rediscovered. Among the real-life crimes explored in the book are the cases of some of the most infamous killers in British history, including Samuel Herbert Dougal, the Moat Farm murderer; George Joseph Smith, the 'brides in the bath' killer; and Catherine Foster, who murdered her husband with poisoned dumplings. With a foreword by international best-selling author Peter James and updated with a new introduction from Martin Edwards, this collection demonstrates the art of 'true crime' writing at its very best.
