In this book, Lucy Worsley, an English historian and the author of a number of bestselling books on historical topics, tells how murder - a dark, shameful act, the last resort of the desperate or the dastardly weapon of scoundrels - became a British national obsession. She shows how this passion led to the emergence of a whole new world of entertainment, including detective novels and plays, painting and films, poetry and documentary crime journalism. She created a fascinating story about how crime was turned into art.
