Letters to Emlyn Williams from David Smith

Letters, 1966-1967, 1975, to the author and playwright Emlyn Williams from David Smith, brother-in-law of infamous Moors murderer Myra Hindley.

The novel was published a year after Brady and Hindley were sentenced to life imprisonment for the murder of five children aged between ten and seventeen in and around Manchester between July 1963 and October 1965.
