Disordered Minds

Macmillan, 2003. First. Hardback. Good. Outline:- Publisher`s Synopsis `The only factors that unite her works are her penchant for dark psychological perception; and their excellence` THE TIMES In 1970 Harold Stamp a retarded reclusive twenty year-old was convicted on disputed evidence and a retracted confession of brutally murdering his grandmother - the one person who understood and protected him. Less than three years later he is dead driven to suicide by isolation and despair. Jonathan Hughes an anthropologist specialising in social stereotyping is determined to re-examine this case. There were alarming disparities in the evidence and Hughes has little doubt that there has been a terrible miscarriage of justice. But there is also something else pushing this half-Iranian half-Libyan outsider to reach for the truth . . . This is more than a mere expose of corruption it is a dark tale of solitude and the relentless need to contain aberration and section evil. `Minette Walters has stormed her way into crime fiction. With her first three books she claimed the highest accolades the crime-writing world can bestow . . . A seductive writer with an imagination that makes her dangerous to know` SUNDAY EXPRESS-> the publisher of this HARDBACK book is Macmillan The date of this copy is 2003 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.
