Inside 25 Cromwell St
7.  Inside 25 Cromwell St by Mae West

"She Must Have Known": The Trial Of Rosemary West
8.  "She Must Have Known": The Trial Of Rosemary West by Brian Masters
The list author says:
  "As a fan of Brian Masters, I admire his attempt to show how the evidence against Rose was purely circumstantial. However, the end-product irratated me, and I wasn't convinced at all."
£6.74   Used & New from: £0.01
3.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (8 customer reviews)

The Corpse Garden
9.  The Corpse Garden by Colin Wilson
The list author says:
  "The author references the other West books and has some interesting insights into the nature of evil, which he illustrates with comparisons to similar cases. Feels a bit rushed though."
