My new true crime book 'The World's End Murders: The Inside Story' takes a detailed analysis into the horrific killing of two Edinburgh teenagers in October 1977 which sparked a nationwide manhunt, turning into one of Britain’s longest and most famous murder investigations. I was one of the original investigators on this devastating murder inquiry which reveals how over nearly four decades, detectives and scientists struggled to deliver justice.
It will launch on 23 June '24 and you can join myself and publishing company Ringwood at 2pm at Hillhead Library in Glasgow. You can also pre-order the book, if you can't make it along (details on pre-ordering are below).
More About the Book
The World’s End Murders: The Inside Story is a new look at a well-known story.
In this book, I offer the detailed analysis only one of the original investigators could give, and I reveal how over nearly four decades, detectives and scientists struggled to deliver justice.
The book tells the story of two innocent young girls, Helen Scott and Christine Eadie, and of the extraordinary police investigation over almost four decades that eventually led to the discovery of links to their deaths with Angus Sinclair, one of Scotland’s most notorious murderers and sex offenders. Acquitted after a controversial trial in 2007, changes in the law and new, cutting-edge forensic evidence meant that Sinclair found himself in the court again, and in 2014 he was finally held to account for the notorious World’s End murders.
But this is not a gruesome tale of violent death – the families of Helen and Christine have suffered long enough. It is a story of heroes – of the families of the two girls who, with quiet dignity, have carried an unimaginable burden down the years, and of the police officers, the support staff and the scientists who persisted in their investigations and never gave up.
This is the inside story of the World’s End murders.
