About this deal

Discover the joy of reading with us, your trusted source for affordable books that do not compromise on quality. While I understand the importance of providing context and setting the scene, some of these descriptions felt unnecessary. Detailed, illuminating, and explicit when it needs to be, but you're going to be shocked in ways you didn't know about.

The crucial investigation would not begin until Feb 1994 and that was when the police started to dig up the patio. To facilitate the Wests' purchasing the property from the council, many of the upper floor rooms were initially converted into bedsits to supplement the household income.

One thing that struck me was how the children of Fred and Rose still loved their father despite all the horrific things he had done. This, in spite of friends, family, lodgers, police, people from the child service, and of course, some would-be victims who got away! A couple of weeks ago, prisoner-for-life Rose West was assaulted by another female inmate, who later stated that as a mother herself she could not tolerate Rose's crimes, nor the attention and approbation she believes Rose receives.

An altercation ensued between Fred and McLachlan, resulting in Fred being struck several times as he clutched onto Charmaine and Anna Marie. Fred willingly accepted these children as his own, and falsely informed them the reason their skin was darker than that of their siblings was because his great-grandmother was a black woman. He also extracted a degree of sympathy from her by claiming he and his two daughters had been abandoned by his wife, and that he wished for more children. He explains that he needs to go further into the past and especially to Fred and Rose’s parents as this provides an insightful portal into how they were and what they would become. She is believed to have been murdered by strangulation, possibly in the back seat of Fred's Ford Popular and likely while intoxicated.I liked the fact that he went into the family history of both people, because it is always important and relevant when people turn violent. In her subsequent statement to police, Owens stated that, at Cromwell Street, she was given a drugged cup of tea to drink, then again gagged and subjected to a prolonged sexual assault from Fred and Rose. To escape Fred's domestic abuse and increasingly sadistic sexual demands, Rena phoned McLachlan, begging him to rescue her, McNeill and her children. So I found it apropos that this superb recounting of the killer couple, Fred West and Rose Leets West, their crimes and personalities, history and ancestry, be published this week (March 14, 2017 release).

Letters McFall posted to her family and McNeill in Glasgow between 1966 and 1967 indicate she believed a relationship with Fred could offer her a better life than that she had experienced in Scotland, and she tried to persuade Fred to divorce his wife and marry her. My friend has said there is a book looking at it from the point of view that Rose is innocent, so that will make for an interesting read.If you’re interested in true crime, then you’ve no doubt heard of the notorious couple Fred and Rose West. To cater to these fetishes, they amassed a large collection of bondage and restraining devices, magazines and photographs—later expanding this collection to include videos depicting bestiality and graphic child sexual abuse. Includes exclusive access to all West's police interviews, prison diaries, papers, solicitor interviews - and his private collection of video tapes, as well as all the interviews given by his wife, Rose West.
