Summary

A schoolteacher who killed multiple paramours with cyanide; a mother who trained her daughters to kill children; a thug from the 1800s who slaughtered more than 900 people, a manservant who killed girls and devoured their body parts.

If you thought serial killers was a Western phenomenon, think again! These bone-chilling stories in The Deadly Dozen will take you into the hearts and heads of India's most devious murderers and schemers, exploring what made them kill and why.

Shocking - but enthralling

One of those books that is "hard to put down" - although on Audible that probably should be "hard to switch off!"

So having so many American and European Serial Killers made famous through books, TV, films and other media, the insight into how the same phenomenon has been going on in India, in a different culture and legal process is fascinating.

The author narrates his own book - not a professional as some of the big production books on Audible, but makes the story more authentic.

The way the author portrays some of the cases is both shocking but captivating - it cannot fail to move you and make you consider life and people around you in a different light. Truly a book that makes you think and leaves an impression long after you have finished it.

This book really deserves to be read widely.
