A chilling account of the Railway Murders that terrorized London.

In 1970, two boys formed a bond that led to unspeakable crimes. Between 1982 and 1986, John Duffy and David Mulcahy committed a series of rapes and murders near London railway stations. This is the first full account of their crimes, told by the son of a lead investigator.

A Dangerous Place explores the investigation that pioneered psychological profiling and computer technology in British policing. It reveals:

  • The minds of two notorious serial killers
  • The courage of the survivors who sought justice
  • The social and historical context of the crimes
For readers of true crime and London history, this is a gripping and exhaustively researched story of evil and resilience.
