This true crime book from author David Leslie is revealing, shocking but at the same time compelling. The book revolves around the key themes of murder, drugs and a mother’s secret heartbreak, a must-read for all crime novel lovers. Here is the main outline of the story, without giving too much away.

As they danced the night away in Glasgow’s Barrowland Ballroom, there was one partner the pretty young women were desperate to avoid: Bible John. So named because he quoted scripture to his victims, this elusive figure was being hunted for three brutal unsolved sex murders.

Police were still investigating the first terrifying murder when Hannah Martin was attacked and raped returning home one night. When Bible John struck again, Hannah confided to a close friend her fear that this man was her own attacker.

The next shock came when Hannah discovered she was pregnant. Her distraught father forced her to give up the child for adoption but in a bizarre twist three decades later the investigation into the infamous World’s End murders would result in Hannah’s daughter discovering the identity of the mother she never knew. This set her on a course to uncover the shocking secrets of her mother’s life.

Did Hannah know Bible John? Could the details of her rape have helped solve the brutal murders? How did Hannah then become a member of a multimillion-pound drug-smuggling gang? And why, after expecting a huge bounty for her role as a witness in court, did she die in poverty? The answers are all here in Bible John’s Secret Daughter.

Not bad for £9.99. What you think?
