The heartbreaking true story of two families' thirty-year fight for justice for their murdered daughters begins on 9 October 1986, when Russell Bishop sexually assaulted and strangled nine-year-old Nicola Fellows and Karen Hadaway in woods near Brighton. For over three decades, he evaded justice. Bishop, a petty criminal known to the girls' families, was charged after his suspicious involvement in the search for their bodies. However, a last-minute change of testimony from his then-girlfriend allowed him to go free, turning the Babes in the Woods murders into one of Britain's most infamous cold cases. Four years later, he was convicted of the attempted murder of a seven-year-old girl, yet the families of Nicola and Karen endured emotional torture as the case remained unsolved. At one point, Nicola's father, Barrie Fellows, even became a suspect as Sussex Police struggled to secure a conviction. Eventually, new DNA evidence led to Bishop being held accountable for his crimes. This compelling account by veteran crime reporter Paul Cheston chronicles the saga of murder, betrayal, and injustice, culminating in healing and hope for the grieving families. With the cooperation of Nicola and Karen's families, the narrative reveals the tragic truth of that fateful day and the courtroom dramas that ultimately brought down one of Britain's most depraved killers.
