Killed on Their Way Home
About this ebook
Killed on Their Way Home examines the heartbreaking true stories of women and girls whose ordinary journeys ended in tragedy. From Milly Dowler and Sarah Everard to Sabina Nessa, Libby Squire, Zara Aleena and others, this sensitive but compelling audiobook explores their lives, the investigations that followed and the failures that allowed dangerous offenders to remain free.
Focusing on the victims rather than sensationalising their killers, it reveals how CCTV, forensic evidence, witness testimony and determined police work helped uncover the truth. It also examines missed warning signs, institutional failings and the wider question of why women and girls are still expected to change their behaviour simply to feel safe.
Powerful, respectful and deeply thought-provoking, Killed on Their Way Home remembers the individuals behind the headlines and the futures that were cruelly taken from them.
