The Moors Murderers

Ian Brady and Myra Hindley were an ill-fated couple - a couple who brought havoc into the world when they got together. Through the murder of young children, they brought a new terror into the world, leaving bodies that horrified England when the truth began to emerge.

Ian Brady and Myra both had a difficult upbringing, but Ian had a more stable upbringing than Myra did. Myra's father was abusive, and she ended up defending her mother and sister against him more than once.

My review:
This was a heartbreaking book to read. It was difficult to read knowing what was going to happen. As you read about their young lives, and then how they met and began their relationship, you start to get the sinking feeling - and a sick feeling as you know what is going to be done at the hands of the monsters that became the Moors Murderers.
Overall, I really did enjoy this book, as you can see a bit more in how these two developed, not only as people but in their relationships.

Thank you to NetGalley and Pen and Sword for a copy of this book for my fair and unbiased review.
