NOW A MAJOR TV DRAMA STARRING MARTIN CLUNES
What does it take to catch one of Britain's most feared killers?

THE SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

Levi Bellfield is one of the most notorious British serial killers of the last fifty years - his name alone evokes horror and revulsion, after his string of brutal murders in the early 2000s.

At 3:07pm on 21st March, 2002, Milly Dowler left her school in Surrey for the last time. Less than an hour later, she was to be abducted and murdered in the cruellest fashion, sparking a missing person investigation that would span months before her body was found.

In the two years that followed, two more young women - Marsha McDonnell and then Amélie Delagrange - were murdered in unspeakably brutal attacks.

Yet with three murdered women on their hands, and few leads open to them, investigating officers were running out of ideas and options, until SIO Colin Sutton was drafted into the investigation for the murder of Delagrange. Seeing a connection between the three women, and thriving under the pressure of a serial killer hunt, Sutton was finally able to bring their murderer to justice after the case had begun to seem hopeless.

Manhunt tells the story of how he led the charge to find a mystery killer, against the clock and against the odds - day by day and lead by lead. At once a gripping police procedural, and an insight into the life of an evil man, this is the story behind what it takes to track down a shockingly violent murderer before he strikes again.

I found this book to be very detailed and full of interesting information! I had to be careful not to drift off in my thoughts while listening, as I would then have to rewind to make sure I didn't miss anything.

Some of the reviews have stated that Sutton was very egotistical, but I really didn't feel that was the case, throughout the book he gave his team praise and credit for their work, I really enjoyed it throughout and found it extremely interesting and full of logically shown steps to the apprehension of this evil man. Very worthwhile reading!

This book enthralled me. I listened almost none stop over the course of a day.
The simple and straightforward account of proper detective work is absolutely compelling.

Nothing gung ho, nothing disrespectful to the victims, just a proper and dignified account of how they caught this monster and moreover how they made sure they cut no corners in order to make sure he didn’t wriggle out of it. Brilliant.

I thoroughly enjoyed the TV series but very. much appreciated the detail of the trial which the TV series didn't cover. I hope ITV makes a sequel and covers the trial. Superb work.

Compelling without being sensationalist
