Summary
Between 1978 and 1983, Dennis Nilsen murdered and mutilated at least 12 young men in London. Many of these young men went under the radar socially, which enabled Nilsen's shocking killing spree to go undetected for years. This true crime audiobook lifts the lid on his sinister story.
From his early upbringing in Scotland to his final act as a free man, this story weaves its way through the darker recess of a disturbed man’s psyche and his compulsion to murder. This book delves into the details of the killings, what triggered Nilsen to commit them, his reliance on alcohol and his loneliness, and the extraordinary reasons behind why he bathed the dead bodies and kept them in his apartment for extended periods of time.
This is his spine-chilling story. If you’re a fan of true crime, then this book is a must-listen and opens the lid on one of the most chilling and notorious serial killers in British history. It will make the flesh crawl under your skin.
Warning: The material in this publication has a strong adult theme and is intended for an adult audience. Listener discretion is advised.

Where to start?
This is a very interesting story however for some like me to, born and brought up in London and lived there during that period I am afraid that the book is so full of holes.
First it is translated from English to US English. The supposed dialogue would never have taken place, especially at that time. There are other howlers. At one point the author talks of new years eve and states that the time was 5:30 pm and "getting dark". New years eve in London it will be dark about 4:15 pm. At another point the author talks of Neilson going to the pub on a Sunday morning and having had 9 pints by noon. Pubs didn't open until noon.
Overall I was disappointed.

Awful.
This is performed in American English which explains the mispronunciations. The actual text reads as fanfiction written by a teenager who has seen a documentary on the subject and thinks they are a writer. The language used is out of place for the time period in question. This is "trash tv" in audio book form.

Disappointing
Very disappointing. Narration wasn’t very good ... mispronunciations were distracting Some inaccuracies too. There are much better books about Nielsen out there
