New Scotland Yard, the headquarters of London's Metropolitan Police, houses the notorious Black Museum, a unique collection of exhibits, photographs, and other items connected with some of the most famous crimes of the last century. Fifty of those crimes were murders and they are explored in detail in this compelling book. Gordon Honeycombe was given privileged access to its darkest secrets of the place that was renamed The Crime Museum. His book spans a hundred years of murder, manslaughter, and attempted assassinations and reveals the true facts behind some of the U.K.'s most notorious murder cases, including Jack the Ripper, Dr. Crippen, and the Krays.
Gordon Honeycombe Libri
Gordon Honeycombe fu più di una semplice voce televisiva; fu un commediografo e attore teatrale. La sua opera letteraria attinge alle sue svariate esperienze di vita, dalla sua formazione in Inghilterra e Scozia al suo primo lavoro in radio e televisione. La scrittura di Honeycombe è caratterizzata dalla capacità di cogliere la condizione umana con uno sguardo caloroso ma severo, simile alla sua presenza sullo schermo.
