Kate Clarke is the author of Murder at the Priory (with Bernard Taylor), In the Interests of Science: Adelaide Bartlett and the Pimlico Poisoning, Who Killed Simon Dale?, Deadly Service, Bad Companions, Fatal Affairs and A Deadly Dilemma. Her Journals and papers (from 1958 to the present day) are archived at the library of the University of Sussex.
M.W. Oldridge is the author of Murder and Crime: Whitechapel and District and The Moat Farm Mystery.
Railways, gaslamps and swirling fog are the vital ingredients in any Victorian melodrama. The truth, however, was often stranger, more thrilling and more horrifying than fiction.
In this book, four eminent crime historians reveal the realities of the Victorian criminal underworld. Notorious crimes - the Road Hill Murder, the Balham Mystery and Jack the Ripper - stand alongside long-forgotten, neglected cases; the most shocking and terrifying cases rub shoulders with everyday horrors, some stunning and some merely sad. This unique work of reference deserves a place on every true-crime enthusiast's bookshelf.

Softcover / Paperback. Etat : Fine. First edition. Softcover. SIGNED. Few things are more evocative of Victorian Britain than its criminals; they are, together with railways, gas lamps and swirling fog, vital ingredients in any Victorian melorama. The truth, however, was often stranger, more thrilling and more horrifying than fiction. In this book, four eminent crime historians reveal the realities of this aspect of Victorian life, illuminating not just the criminals and their victims, but also the policemen, forensic scientists and others who rubbed shoulders with the 19th century underworld. Notorious crimes - the Road Hill Murder, the Balham Mystery and Jack the Ripper - stand alongside long-forgotten, neglected cases; the most shocking and terrifying cases appear next to everyday horrors, some stunning and some merely sad.
