Build Up Vol 2: A detailed study of the murders at 10 Rillington Place (Fatal Secrets: Britain's Darkest True Crimes Uncovered)

The bodies were found.
The killer was caught.
But the truth? That would take decades.

In Build Up: Volume 2, author Norman Morgan delivers the definitive account of the events that followed the grisly discoveries at 10 Rillington Place — including the sensational 1953 trial of John Christie, the re-investigation of Timothy Evans’ wrongful conviction, and the inquiries that shook the British justice system to its core.

This meticulously researched volume examines:

• Christie’s confessions, contradictions, and courtroom defence

• The Scott Henderson Inquiry and the campaign to clear Timothy Evans’ name

• Ludovic Kennedy’s landmark exposé and other true crime chroniclers who kept the pressure on

• The Brabin Inquiry, which re-opened wounds and forced a nation to reckon with injustice

• The broader implications for capital punishment in the UK

Build Up: Volume 2 is not just a retelling — it’s a forensic dissection of institutional failure, media pressure, legal missteps, and one of the most haunting series of murders in British history.

For fans of Dominic Sandbrook, Kate Summerscale, and Erik Larson, this is a true crime saga that refuses to fade into the archives.

Because the justice system didn’t just fail once.
It failed again and again.
