Description
"...The term "Malice Domestic" was used by Roughead to describe crimes that occur within a domestic setting, typically involving family members, close acquaintances, or individuals within the same household.

Considered the father of modern true crime literature. Dorothy Sayers called William Roughead "the best showman who ever stood before the door of the chamber of horrors," and his true crime stories, written in the early 1900s, are among the glories of the genre. Displaying a meticulous command of evidence and unerring dramatic flair, Roughead brings to life some of the most notorious crimes and extraordinary trials of eighteenth- and nineteenth-century England and Scotland.
