Product Description

Product Description

The youngest of ten children, Melissa went missing in Sligo from the care of the Health Service Executive in September 2006. Her remains were found on the shore of Lough Gill in February 2008 following a tip off to Gardai. The tragic story of Melissa's disappearance, the discovery of her remains and the subsequent trial of Ronnie McManus for her killing are told in this fascinating book. The author also explores the personality of Ronnie McManus, also known as Ronnie Dunbar, a fitness fanatic who believed 'the new world was coming'. This chilling story has all the elements of a court room drama, a psychological thriller and a murder mystery. It will appeal to anyone fascinated by true crime and by the depths of human depravity.

Its OK 20 Nov 2009
Format:Paperback
Bought this book as I was interested in what exactly happened this poor girl. The book tells the story clearly enough, a truly tragic story about this guy Dunbar and how depraved he was to do what he did to this Girl. A lot of the information is repeated several times in the book, and I personally feel that a lot of the story is missing or was never brought before the courts, I read a lot of this type of book and felt the whole way through that In this story, the reader does not have all the facts... I enjoyed reading the story, but found it difficult to keep up with the different events and those involved. am interested to see what others think.
