The Fred West Tapes

A DEFINITIVE NEW BOOK THAT SHEDS NEW LIGHT ON THE FRED AND ROSE WEST MURDER INVESTIGATIONSThirty years since the death of Fred West and the conviction of his wife Rose, in 1995, the West murder case exerts a magnetic fascination for true crime readers. The Wests claimed twelve victims, young women and girls including members of their own family. Nine mutilated bodies were found buried under their home at 25 Cromwell St, Gloucester, the so-called House of Horrors. Author Howard Sounes wrote the first major book about this extraordinary case, having broken stories about the investigation as a journalist. He was the first to use the phrase House of Horrors, and has become the leading expert in the case. He is the presenter of a hit podcast series about the murders and one of the producers of a new series on the story for Netflix, which he also features in. While Fred & Rose stands as a true crime classic, Sounes's new book - The Fred West Tapes - sheds wholly new light on the investigation, bringing readers into the interview room as the police quizzed Fred West. This book will draw a new generation and a global audience to the case. The Fred West Tapes incorporates remarkable new evidence and primary source testimony, including the experiences of the West children and victim families. With never-before-seen and heard testimony and evidence, this is a fascinating journey into the twisted mind of serial killer Fred West and his marriage to Rose, his partner in crime.
