About this listen
This is the shocking story of a doctor who was addicted to murder: a man who wickedly abused the trust of his patients with horrifying results.
He was a pillar of the community: attentive, kind, never too busy to chat. Yet behind this charming facade lay the world's most prolific serial killer, with at least 200 victims. Small, bespectacled Dr Shipman was making house calls - and then committing murder with bloodcurdling expertise and professionalism. He saw himself as playing God.
This sensational book looks behind the man and reveals how, throughout his 25-year campaign of evil, Shipman continued to be a doting husband and father, trusted and adored by the majority of his patients. Evil Beyond Belief looks at how he was able to get away with murder for so long and - most important of all - why he was driven by a twisted, insatiable lust for death. It also looks at the events leading up to Shipman's suicide and examines the effect that this dramatic event had on the families of his numerous victims.

Interesting story
Found the voice and cadence of the narrator difficult. While the story is very good and I interesting. Many facts got repeated often in short spaces of time. For me that felt like filling space with no real benefit to the story or add in understanding what had happened when.
With that in mind still worth the listen.

Too much speculation
Where Clarkson sticks to the facts, this is a decent retelling of the Shipman story. However, when he gets into the reeds: speculation about how the Shipman marriage worked, what was going through the murderer's mind etc.., the book takes on a soap opera quality. I wished more time had been devoted to the investigation, the Inquiry and to the roles of the local funeral director, taxi driver and the other Hyde G.P..s.
The book benefits from being heard at 1.05 speed.
