For the Love of Lesley by Ann West

The death of Lesley Ann Downey at the hands of Ian Brady and Myra Hindley in 1964 conferred a life sentence on her mother, who tells her story in this book. From that Boxing Day when Lesley went to the fair, never to return, through the experience of identifying the body and - even worse - the tape recordings of Lesley pleading with her killers, to the years of struggle to keep Brady and Hindley behind bars and to prevent people using Lesley's death in plays or films, Mrs West describes the nightmare feared by every parent. The book has been updated to include further correspondence with Brady, and Hindley's threat to seek freedom via the European Court.
