Summary

In March 2011, a major police investigation was opened in the search for missing Swindon local, Sian O'Callaghan. When taxi driver Christopher Halliwell was arrested, Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher didn't expect what happened next.

After the body of another missing girl, Becky Godden-Edwards, was uncovered, the police had two murders on their hands and one suspect, but how many more unsolved murders could Christopher Halliwell be responsible for? The hidden cache of around sixty pieces of women's clothing and accessories that he led police to suggests that the number could be much higher than the two murders he has been convicted of.

In The New Millennium Serial Killer, former police intelligence officer Chris Clark and true crime podcast host Bethan Trueman use their in-depth research to present a comprehensive study into convicted killer Christopher Halliwell. With a foreword by former Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher, this book presents a fascinating account of this cruel killer and tells the heartbreaking stories of over twenty women whose cases remain unsolved today, seeking to find justice for their loved ones who are still waiting for answers. Do they remain with Christopher Halliwell and the collection of women's items?

Excellent research ruined by dreadful narration

I wish I had read this well-researched, interesting book rather than listened to this dreadful narration. The narrator mispronounced Sian O’Callaghan’s name throughout as “Shaun” which is disrespectful towards the victim. Other names and words were also mispronounced: Abergele became “Abergell”, Llangollen became “Langerllan” and the word “inquiry” became an “inquerry” which irritated the hell out of me. I hope this can be re-recorded by a narrator who cares about getting things right.

Awful narrator, pronounces the victims name wrong!

I don’t know if the narrator is a real person or AI but the voice is awful and they keep calling Sian, Shawn which is so disrespectful. The voice is like a patronising school teacher.

Such a shame because the book is really well written and researched.

Great story, terrible narration.

Like all this author’s books, fascinating and well written. Unfortunately the narrator cannot pronounce names, places, and barely takes a breath.

Brilliantly researched and written

A fascinating deep dive into a number of cases that could have been committed by convicted murderer Christopher Halliwell. I got a real sense of who these women were and why it’s so important that their cases are investigated further by police.

My only criticism would be the narrator’s consistent mispronunciation of Sian’s name, and at one point also referring to Becky as Betty. I do think these mistakes should have picked up on before release out of respect to their families.

Otherwise a very good read. One I’m sure I’ll listen to again.

Good book shame about the narration

Very well written but many names and words mispronounced to the point I nearly deleted it
It sounds that it was read through by a AI voice
