I loved this book!

I think that this book is really amazing! When I read it my heart went out to Richard and his sisters. It's hard to loose a parent but when they're killed by some evil man it makes it even worse! I recommend this book to everyone who has heard of the Yorkshire Ripper and hates his guts like I do!

I couldn't put this book down once I had started it! A true story which is beautifully written and refreshingly frank - it will touch many people's hearts! I can't say a lot about the book as it would spoil the read, (you'll just have to read the book yourself!) - suffice to say that I can't wait for the sequel!
