The Book Behind the Major BBC Series
Now updated and featuring previously unseen photographs

“As close to the definitive book on the subject as we are ever likely to read.” — Manchester Evening News

The Lost Boy is the compelling and deeply researched account of one of the twentieth century’s most notorious crimes. Over more than twenty years, journalist Duncan Staff has carried out an exhaustive and sensitive investigation into the murders committed by Ian Brady and Myra Hindley — and the devastating impact that has endured for decades.

In the major new BBC series The Moors Murders: A Search for Justice, Staff reveals newly uncovered documents and recordings from the infamous child killers. The series exposes past investigative failures while bringing to light shocking new evidence that could finally help locate the remains of the last missing victim, Keith Bennett.

This updated edition of The Lost Boy tells the full story of Duncan Staff’s extraordinary investigation — the closest we may ever come to a definitive account of the Moors Murders.
