In the aftermath of Nurse Lucy Letby's conviction in August 2023 for the murder of seven babies and the attempted murder of six others, cold-blooded killings by some of the most trusted professionals are a subject of very real public concern. The subject is also extremely topical, with massive media coverage.
In this book, an experienced criminologist focuses a forensic spotlight on the phenomenon of murders committed by doctors and other medical professionals, including the child-killing nurses Beverly Allitt and Lucy Letby, and Dr Harold Shipman, the UK's most prolific serial killer.
