A Gallows Guest List: Chronicles from the End of a Rope

In this collection of true-crime cases from the 18th and 19th centuries, Grahame Farrell invites the reader to an in-depth look at a selection of murderers who were given an offer they couldn’t refuse – a date with the hangman. It includes two who were convicted of a less serious crime, and concludes with two whose names, for different reasons, never reached the guest list.
Told with Farrell’s usual clear and captivating style, these chronicles are sure to enthral all lovers of historical true crime.
