The World's Twenty Worst Crimes

Serial killers are the most horrific and terrifying of all criminlas. Almost always men, their obsession with random and violent murder strikes fear deep into our hearts and has captured the public imgaination in innumerable films and books portraying these most warped of human minds. The real-life examples are so much worseÖ In this, the first book of its kind, Kate Kray, who married gangster Ronnie Kray, peers into the minds of the twenty worst killers in criminal history and, sparing no detail reveals the awful truth of their abominable acts. The extreme nature of their violence and their shocking lack of remorse makes for uncomfortable, yet fascinating reading. From obsessive sexual predators and extreme sadists, to cannibals and head hunters, each type of psychopath is examined, their crimes against life told with grim, yet necessary frankness. Kate offers true insight into the deeply worrying motivations of what come to seem closer to monsters than humans, begging the question of whether such individuals can themselves by viewed as victims of a troubled past, or merely as exponents of pure evil.

Whilst married to Ronnie Kray, Kate gained access to a fearsome underworld few would dare to enter. Her books offer the reader a totally unique perspective of Britain's underworld, her connections allowing her to ask uncomfortable questions few would dare to ask such men. To read her book is to take a walk on the truly wild side and survive.
