Dal risvolto di copertina interno
A series of child murders that took place in and around Manchester in the 1960s shocked and scandalized the country. The two people responsible, Myra Hindley and Ian Brady, were tried in a sensational case and sentenced to life in prison. The horrific nature of their crimes made them two of the most reviled characters in Britain, and for the last forty years, every detail of their lives behind bars has been played out on the front pages of the nation's newspapers. Four children were murdered and buried on Saddleworth Moor by Hindley and Brady; the body of one of their victims, Keith Bennett, is yet to be found.
In 1999, Duncan Staffmade a documentary on the Moors murders for BBC2. In the course of producing the programme he began a correspondence with Myra Hindley in which she spoke candidly about the crimes. The programme aired, concluding unquestioningly with a reaffirmation of her role in the murders. After Myra Hindley's death, Duncan was sent her unpublished papers, a cache of photographs and the letters she had written to her family from prison.
Using this unprecedented resource, combined with the cooperation of the families of the victims, the police and expert witnesses, Duncan Staff has written what is as close to a definitive book on the subject as we are ever likely to read. It is a chilling investigation into the nature of evil, and casts new light on the motivation for the murders, the nature of Hindley's relationship with Brady, and her life in prison. In marshalling this new evidence it is also a call for a renewed effort to find the body of Keith Bennett.
The Lost Boy will stand as a classic work of investigative journalism and is a compelling exploration of the most notorious crimes in Britain of the last hundred years.

A series of child murders that took place in Yorkshire and Lancashire in the 1960s shocked and scandalised the country. The two people responsible, Myra Hindley and Ian Brady, were tried in a sensational case and have become notorious as the human face of evil. It is a story that has captured headlines for forty years. Four children were murdered by Hindley and Brady, the body of one of their victims, Keith Bennett, has never been found. In 'The Lost Boy' Duncan Staff has produced the nearest to a definitive book on the subject we will possibly ever read. In 1999 Duncan Staff made a documentary on the Moors murders for BBC2. In the course of producing this programme he, as a matter of course, invited Myra Hindley to put across her side of the story. Much to his surprise, she agreed. What followed was a correspondence in which Hindley spoke candidly about some aspects of her crimes. The programme aired, concluding unquestioningly with a reaffirmation of her guilt. After her death, her estate sent Duncan Myra Hindley¿s unpublished papers, which proved to be a window into the disturbed world of Hindley and Brady. Drawing on this unique resource, and combined with extensive research, the cooperation of the families of the victims, the police and expert witnesses Duncan Staff has written this authoritative investigation into these infamous crimes.
