Softcover. Sussex holds a special place in the annals of British crime. Some of the most macabre but intriguing murders have been committed here. The author describes 18 cases of particular interest from the County's past. Dismemberment has figured prominently, and cases include that of the tragic figure of Elsie Cameron, battered to death and buried in pieces beneath a chicken run. There was the suave womaniser, Patrick Mahon, trying to dispose of his current darling in a bungalow at The Crumbles; and tough-guy Tony Mancini with the ghastly horror in his cabin trunk. Greed, love, lust, jealousy and hate - all the ingredients for the ultimate crime are here in a book that covers killings from the 1920s to the 1990s. The cases are harrowing and many are baffling - but all make compelling reading for anyone interested in true crime in Sussex. Illus. + Index. 128pp. trade size soft cover. F. with no creasing to covers.
