    A true Crime you must read
  

*by G***A on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 9, 2016*

I have been waiting to ask to review this book as I found it to be one of the best written true crime novels I have read in sometime.  Never thought I would say this but this author is as good as Ann Rule. if you are a reader of True Crime you would know there are few that can compare to her detail and research of true Crime.  I wish every child and young girl could read some of these novels only to know and be aware there are some awful people, men and woman that will do them harm.  So they may report and stand trial against these monsters and save others.  This book does detail  the torture and sexual abuse these young woman endured, but did not tell all. In Ann Rule books she certainly describes the crime scene in more detail and does not leave anything to the imagination. Fromstatements which Fred must have made in his confessions to the police. I think there was much more the author could have told it readers. .  I think this author told some of the details of the crime but left out the full details. It is such a shame that the police and social services did not take all the porn and prostitution in this house seriously enough when there were at least 4 children in the house.  That an ex-wife and her child turned up missing and no one cared enough to report or the authorities thought so little of these people that no one looked into Fred and Rose and their awful house of horrors, so much there that even the average person would have seen that was discusting much less a legal authority or social service person.,  .  All life Is precious and we need to train all that school in law enforcement and social services to remember that and treat them the same as any middle class suburban crime.  Maybe when it is a crime against Children and woman we as a society should innst that for every male on the scene should be eqaaled b some but not all.  Wish Ann could have written this book. It also shows how little many police stations and social services, paid by their citizens,  here in the United States and Europe place so little on the poor people who report these crimes do not really do anything until it is a serial killer That the ones involved will not tell all.  This book shows that this husband and wife killed not only their own wives and Children in the most awful ways imaginable, buried them in their home, and was reported on more than one time, with tons of porn and prostitution with no further search or action from polices or social services with at least 4 children in the home. The author only goes into some detail but not enough to disturb readers of other crime books.  Worth the read but will leave you wondering what do pay our police for and social services for.  Not traffic tickets or lazy social workers that do little to protect the children that not only come from sad homes, but end up in ever sadder homes.  Maybe we should insist for every sexual crimes that involves woman and children that an equal  female presence be on hand for all calls and investigation. Although this happened years ago I think some of the same lax investigations applies today as there have been many more after and more to come .

    House of Horrors, Garden of Evil...
  

*by V***T on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on August 31, 2020*

4 stars. FRED AND ROSE by Howard Sounes...In jolly old England, 1994, articles began appearing in Gloucester's evening papers about human remains uncovered in the garden of 25 Cromwell Street...... one of the bodies was a 16 year old daughter of the household, Heather West...The gruesome story gained momentum when additional bodies were unearthed in the garden, basement and under a bathroom floor of the house...... also buried with the bodies were the instruments of the victims' torture... some  skulls were buried with the tape that had been wrapped round and round their head still attached and...... a few had plastic tubes sticking through  their nose to enable breathing. There was little doubt that they had been suspended from rafters to cause long, protracted suffering for days before death came...One of the most bizarre things about the bodies were their missing fingers and toes...Did these amputations happen before or after death?...... also, Fred and Rosemary West (the murderous duo) had many children and tenants living in the house... why didn't anyone hear anything?... The Wests' were responsible for many, many missing women...I was at one time married to a Sheriff's homicide detective in Los Angels and took an Interest in true crime especially the hillside stranglers since I knew some of the detectives in the case.I removed one star because I have read other accounts of this case that went into more detail but I liked that this account filled in some gaps.Warning to some readers: do not read this book if you're squeamish or easily scared.

*by C***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 30, 2022*

Look no further than the depravity of Rose and Fred West. I put Rose's name first because I firmly believe she was the instigator and the catalyst of the events that transpired. I am only halfway through and am shocked at how they got away from one charge and continued the carnage. Worth the read if you are a true crime nut and are fascinated by the psychological mindset of persons committing unthinkable crimes.
