Master Detective | Feb-18
The gruesome two-year killing spree of Peter Manuel, the Beast of Birkenshaw, will never be forgotten. Nor should it be. Arrogant and despicable in equal measure, the American-born Scot struck terror into the lives of those living in Lanarkshire in the late 1950s. He confessed to eight murders but almost certainly killed nine. Manuel regarded himself as a criminal mastermind but were the failings of the police investigation partly responsible for this inflated opinion? Read “Scotland’s Worst-Ever Serial Killer” in this issue for the full story.
