For the next twelve hours, from seven in the evening until seven in the morning, he is responsible for guarding the body of the notorious child killer, Myra Hindley. In the face of public hostility and media frenzy, Billy's job, as his superior puts it, is to 'make sure nothing happens'. As a seasoned police officer, Billy's approach is utterly professional, but as the night wears on, in the eerie silence of the hospital, the dead woman's presence begins to assert itself, and Billy's own problems and anxieties, a stalled career, a fractious marriage, a disabled daughter, gradually acquire a new and unexpected significance. In this daring novel, Rupert Thomson takes on one of the most controversial subjects of our time and addresses the difficult questions that arise from it. Who do we love, and why? How do we protect our children? What separates us from the people we call monsters? A vivid evocation of an extraordinary moment in crime history, 'Death of a Murderer' is one man's dark night of the soul, a gripping meditation on the fears and temptations that haunt the lives of all of us.
