Sophie Lionnet was a shy Frenchwoman who had come to London in 2016 to look after a couple’s two young boys. Tragically for the vulnerable lady from Troyes, the great adventure in which she hoped to find a role in life would end in her miserable death at the hands of warped fantasists who trapped, starved and murdered her. Read “Evil Couple Burned Torture Victim’s Body” in this issue for the full, horrific story.

“Crimes That Made The Headlines” this month takes us back to the Birmingham of the 1960s and the brutal sex-killings of 15-year-old Jacqueline Thomas and 16-year-old Sylvia Whitehouse. “It turned out to be two cases in one...with an unpredictable denouement that invites us to reach our own conclusions,” recalls writer Matthew Spicer. Don’t miss it.

“Under The Spotlight: 59 Dead In Las Vegas Massacre” considers the horrific events in the casino city one year ago when gunman Stephen Paddock killed 58 concertgoers and injured hundreds of others in the US’s worst-ever mass shooting. Perhaps he was simply seeking infamy. If so, he certainly achieved it.

Finally, don’t miss the last instalment of “120 Were Hanged At Pentonville,” which includes the case of the notorious serial killer John Reginald Halliday Christie and the deadly events at 10 Rillington Place.
