Publisher's Summary
He's just seven years old. He's your son. You wave goodbye to him one morning as he disappears into the swirling fog. And then he is gone. Forever.
This gripping historical crime fiction novel, based on fact, is set in Bradford, England, 1888. It explores the horrific murder of Johnny Gill; a murder and mutilation so gruesome, it stuns a nation. Even hardened detectives are affected by its savagery, swiftly comparing it to the work of Jack the Ripper.
Who Killed Little Johnny Gill? is Kathryn McMaster's debut novel. It is a noir pause-resister that immediately immerses you in a maelstrom of emotions, keeping you in suspense as Chief Detective Constable Withers and his dedicated team of British detectives try and gather sufficient evidence to bring a conviction against their suspect.
In 1888, police procedures and knowledge of Forensic Science are rudimentary and juries are exposed to persuasive newspaper reports and public opinion. Will justice prevail, or will the guilty walk free?
This is one crime fiction novel you won't be able to put down until the last word!

Audio editing issues
Great who done it. However the producers clearly didn’t listen to the final cut as there are some major editing issues which are really annoying.
Also the initial details on devil worshippers having a hand in the murder are irrelevant and don’t get mentioned again until very briefly at the end. This is also annoying.

A good read.
I found this story fascinating. From an historical perspective, very well told. From a judicial perspective, I was quietly surprised that not a lot has changed in over a century.
