Neither novel nor biography, DR CRIPPEN'S DIARY is a dramatic mixture of true crime and inventive fiction by the bestselling author of BEYOND BELIEF.
Interpreting known facts through his knowledge of criminal psychology, Emlyn Williams has created the journal Crippen could have kept, from his twenty-first birthday to his last hours. Following the fate of his monstrous wife and his young lover, Ethel Le Neve, it brings to life one of the most notorious murderers of the twentieth century.
Ingenious and convincing, Crippen seen for decades as a vicious murderer emerges as a tragically misunderstood character, tried beyond endurance.
