The Pottery Cottage murders : the terrifying untold true story of an escaped prisoner and the family he held hostage in Derbyshire

Lee, Carol Ann2020
Books, Manuscripts
For three days Billy Hughes played psychological games with Gill Moran and her family, while secretly murdering them one by one. Blizzards hampered the police manhunt, but they learned where the dangerous criminal was hiding and closed in on the cottage. A desperate car chase ensued, ending with a shoot-out and the killer's death. There was just one survivor. The plot for a great crime novel? No, it all actually happened in January 1977.
