Foul Deeds and Suspicious Deaths In & Around The Fens (Foul Deeds & Suspicious Deaths) Kindle Edition

Discover this coastal plain in England—and the crimes that have taken place there over the centuries.
 
The Fens of England, thinly populated with isolated farmsteads, has been the setting for a number of popular crime novels—but it has also been the actual site of many horrific, bloody, and bizarre incidents. This book takes a gripping look at the darker side of the area’s history—from crimes of callous premeditation to those born of passion or despair.
 
Included are tales of conspiracy, robbery, violence, cruelty, and murder that reveal a previously neglected side of Fenland society. Unforgettable cases are featured—a mother who murdered her son, a police officer who hid the body of his mother, a farmer brutally slain for his money, a dustman who killed a local girl, and the headless body of a woman who has never been identified. Covering a wide range of human weakness and wickedness, this chronicle of the hidden side of the Fens will be compelling reading for anyone who is interested in the sinister side of human nature and the social conditions that nurture it.

This book gives accounts of murders which occurred in the fens area of England. There were a few errors, though in the book. I highly recommend this book to other true crime readers.

I like this series of books, however the continued use of 'hung' instead of 'hanged' is annoying. Maybe correct this in future books?
