Judges notes:
A remarkable read, riveting without ever being salacious, this offers a fresh perspective on one of Britain’s most notorious cases. Rillington Place has often been covered but Summerscale recreates the grime, greyness and repression of an utterly different era with a novelist’s eye and an appreciation of the difficult, rootless lives of the victims.
