21 Reviews   •  English   •   General Interest (News & Current Affairs)
Seventy years ago this month, the first issue of Master Detective’s UK edition went on sale. We’re still going strong – and we’re still dedicated to bringing you the world’s best true crime stories, every month. Here’s a taste of what we have for you this issue:

Teenage sweethearts David Faraday and Bettilou Jensen were the first to die. Shot dead on the evening of December 20th, 1968, near Lake Herman, California, they were the first-known victims of the Zodiac killer. Four months later he would strike again. And over the months and years that followed more would die. How many, exactly, remains the cause of some debate. The taunting killer himself claimed he had committed 37 murders. His identity remains a mystery, despite the best efforts of sleuths both professional and amateur to unmask him. See “Zodiac: The Killer Who Wouldn’t Be Caught” kin this issue for the full, incredible story.

“Dead Man Walking”, about a killer on Death Row, was one of the most memorable films of the 90s. In our story “Dead Man Walking”, in this issue, we present the real case behind the movie’s back story. Don’t miss it! 


Highlights this issue include:

* Zodiac – The Killer Who Wouldn’t Be Caught

* European Crime Report

* Britain’s Murder Village, Part Three: Seven Dead In Bucks Family Massacre

* MD Forum 1: Manchester’s Strange Case Of The Palmprint And The Coded Letter
