In September 2017, occupational therapist Dianna Mah-Jones and her husband Richard were murdered in their Vancouver home by a stranger who had watched Dianna from the street. CCTV, discarded murder weapons, and a cleverly obtained DNA sample led detectives to Rocky Rambo Wei Nam Kam, whose disturbing police interview and claim that he believed he was inside a violent video game became central to the case.

In November 1966, respected Buckinghamshire doctor Helen Davidson was brutally murdered while walking her dog in Hodgemoor Woods, leaving her fox terrier as the sole witness. There was no clear motive for the strange killing. The local police, assisted by Scotland Yard detectives, initially focused on Helen's husband and their housekeeper. Later, more information would come to light, along with other tragic deaths connected to the case and the discovery of a further key suspect.

In the summer of 1912, 21-year-old Minnie Morris left London for a working holiday picking fruit in the quiet fenland village of Walsoken. When her body was discovered beside a country lane, suspicion fell on fellow fruit-picker Robert Galloway, who had already made a surprising confession but went on to change his story.

In January 1990, Ontario was gripped by one of Canada’s largest manhunts in 15 years. Peter John Peters, a violent ex-convict known as ‘The Tattoo Man’, terrorised the province for several days, leaving a trail of theft, assault and murder. From the brutal killing of a 63-year-old cleaner to the stabbing of two young women and a bank robbery, his crime spree tested law enforcement and left communities in fear.

In June 1928, a newly married Chinese couple arrived in the Lake District to enjoy their honeymoon. Days later, 28-year-old Wai Sheung Siu was found strangled in woodland near Derwentwater. Suspicion fell on her husband as hidden jewellery, cryptic notes, and reports of mysterious men and secret societies became part of a sensational murder case.

On 1 July 2026, we were interviewed by Giles Brown on Talk Radio Europe about our latest book, Wartime London's 'Bonnie and Clyde': The Crime Spree of Betty Jones and Karl Hulten, which examines the 1944 crime spree that culminated in the shooting of private car hire driver George Edward Heath, known as the 'Cleft Chin Murder'. This is the recording of the interview in which we briefly explore several aspects of the case, including crime and society in wartime London, American servicemen in Britain during the Second World War, and the lives of Elizabeth Jones and Karl Hulten who were aged 18 and 22 at the time of their crime spree.

In June 1982, the murder of Police Constable David Haigh sparked the largest manhunt Britain had seen at that time. As fugitive Barry Prudom moved through the forests and villages of North Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire, he left more victims in his wake, including Sergeant David Winter. Hundreds of police officers, helicopters, armed units and a specialist wilderness tracker joined the search, which culminated in the ‘Siege of Malton’. But how did a reserved former electrician and family man become one of the country’s most dangerous fugitives, known as the Phantom of the Forest?

On Christmas Day 1872, the body of 31-year-old Harriet Buswell was discovered in a Bloomsbury lodging house, her throat brutally cut inside a locked room. As detectives reconstructed her final hours, conflicting witness statements and rumours of a mysterious ‘German gentleman’ sent the investigation spiralling in the wrong direction. In this episode, we examine this baffling unsolved case that bears striking similarities to the later Jack the Ripper murders, and the tragic story of a young woman whose killer was never found.

In October 1946, 48-year-old Dagmar Peters was found murdered on Wrotham Hill in Kent after a lorry driver spotted a blue shoe at the roadside. The investigation was led by Chief Inspector Robert Fabian, later immortalised in the TV series Fabian of the Yard. Suspicion fell on lorry driver Sidney Sinclair, a man with multiple aliases whose story soon unravelled under questioning.

In 1885, in the Fenland village of Walsoken near Wisbech, Bathsheba Goodale was last seen alive with her husband, Robert. That night, he returned home alone, his trousers soaked and his boots thick with mud. He showed little concern when his wife failed to come back from the fields, and his strange indifference quickly stirred suspicion among the villagers. The discovery of Bathsheba’s body at the bottom of a well was followed by a murder charge, a trial, and a guilty verdict. Robert Goodale was condemned to death. Yet it was not the crime that would secure his place in history, but its notorious aftermath. His execution became infamous as one of Britain’s worst botched hangings.

In 1960s Kraków, Poland, a string of random, brutal stabbings shocked the city and left police hunting a killer with no apparent motive. At first, nobody suspected Karol Kot; a polite, intelligent teenager hiding an obsession with knives and violence. The two murders and multiple attempted murders he committed would earn him the nickname ‘The Vampire of Kraków.’
