Synopsis

THE BOOK BEHIND THE MAJOR BBC SERIES
Now updated and including previously unseen photographs.

'As close to the definitive book on the subject as we are ever likely to read' Manchester Evening News

The Lost Boy is the compelling story of some of the twentieth-century's most notorious crimes. Over more than twenty years, Duncan Staff has undertaken an exhaustive, and sensitive, exploration into all aspects of the murders committed by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley and their long-felt aftermath.

In a major new series for the BBC, The Moors Murders: A Search for Justice, he presents newly discovered documents and recordings of the infamous child serial killers. The series seeks to expose past errors while also uncovering startling new evidence which could be used to find the body of the final missing victim, Keith Bennett.

This updated edition of Duncan Staff’s book tells the full story of his investigation into what happened - the nearest to a definitive book on the subject we will ever read.
