Thirty years since the death of Fred West and the conviction of his wife Rose, in 1995, the West murder case exerts a magnetic fascination for true crime readers. The Wests claimed twelve victims, young women and girls including members of their own family. Nine mutilated bodies were found buried under their home at 25 Cromwell St, Gloucester, the so-called House of Horrors.

He was the first to use the phrase House of Horrors, and has become the leading expert in the case. He is the presenter of a hit podcast series about the murders and one of the producers of a series on the story for Netflix. This work sheds new light on the investigation, bringing readers into the interview room as the police quizzed Fred West.

A DEFINITIVE NEW BOOK THAT SHEDS NEW LIGHT ON THE FRED AND ROSE WEST MURDER INVESTIGATIONS

More than thirty years since the death of Fred West and the conviction of his wife Rose for murder, the West case still exerts a magnetic fascination. Nine bodies were found in 1994 buried under the couple's home at 25 Cromwell Street in Gloucester, the so-called 'House of Horrors'. In total, the Wests claimed twelve victims, including members of their own family.

The Fred West Tapes is the inside story of the Fred & Rose West investigation by Howard Sounes, bestselling author and the producer behind the hit global documentary series. Going beyond his first book about this extraordinary case, Fred & Rose, Sounes sheds new light on the murders, using for the first time a trove of unseen police interviews with Fred West.

Incorporating remarkable new evidence and primary source testimony, including interviews with members of the West family and victim families, this chilling book is a fascinating journey into the mind of one of Britain's most notorious serial killers.
