About this listen

Mary Bell’s name to this day is infamous in Newcastle upon Tyne. Aged only 11 in 1968, she murdered two young boys, one aged three and one aged four, in Scotswood, an area of the West End of Newcastle upon Tyne.

In both instances, Mary Bell told the victim that he had a sore throat, which she would massage to make them better before her hands became tighter when she would strangle them to death.

Nothing wrong with the writing or narration but the whole book is onky 30 mins long. I should have noticed this in advance but had assumed something with this subject matter would have a bit more substance to it!
