Product Description
Product Description
No one could have imagined that when beautiful young Rachel Nickell went for a walk on Wimbledon Common with her little son, it would have resulted in a wicked, sickening crime that appalled a nation; or that the police investigation that follwed would cost over a million pounds. This is the "inside" story of the operation to catch the killer of Rachel Nickell by the police detective that headed it up. Keith Pedder reveals information that has hitherto been withheld, and prints letters from the police involved in the operation to the chief suspect.

First Sentence
The traffic had been nose-to-bumper all the way out of South London on that warm July evening, but by the time I had negotiated the back-doubles to avoid Sydenham High Street, the going became a little easier. Read the first page

I think it was Gunther Grass who said "Even bad books are books and therefore sacred. Well He couldn't have read this pile of self serving drivelsome unapologetic clap-trap from Pedder who would better spend his time explaining to the British public (preferably whilst wearing sackcloth and ashes,)His role in the despicable and disgraceful shambles that resulted in the persecution of a wholly innocent man, Colin Stagg, for a shocking murder. If Pedder had any human decency He would use the proceeds to repay some of the estimated £2 million He and the poltroons around Him have cost the British taxpayer. He could then crawl to Roehampton and plead for Mr Staggs forgiveness. It goes without saying that this case was the startof the slippery slope that led to the Met becoming the circus act it is today. Pathetic!

Have to disagree with the other reviews. This is a great insight into a deeply flawed investigation. I found it well written and really rather engaging. Now the truth is out it makes it even more interesting in my eyes.
This appears to be exactly the same book as "Murder on the Common: The Secret Story of the Murder That Shocked a Nation". Don't make the mistake I made and buy them both!

Now that the true identity of Rachels murderer is know, this sort of drivel should be banned and removed from the shelves of Amazon and every self respecting book shop.
