Summary

A spine-tingling account of the man behind the World's End murders

On October 15 1977, Christine Eadie and Helen Scott left the World's End pub after a fun-filled night with two men in their arms. They had their whole lives ahead of them. They had nothing to fear and everything to look forward to.

Their naked bodies were discovered the following day. They were found six miles apart from each other. No attempt had been made to conceal their bodies, and both girls had been beaten, gagged, tied, raped and strangled.

The case attracted widespread media attention and despite the Police's best efforts, they were unable to identify a culprit. Within the next six months, the investigation was scaled down. The World's End killers were still at large. Free to continue terrorizing the streets of Scotland.

Thanks to the advances in DNA profiling, investigators were able to link the murders of Christine Eadie and Helen Scott to an Angus Sinclair, who was known to the Police.

Sinclair had pleaded guilty to culpable homicide of an eight-year-old girl when he was just 16 and was serving a life sentence for the murder of another 17-year-old girl. It is not known how many victims suffered at the hands of Sinclair. He is thought to have killed at least another four women but it could have been twice that amount.

Best-selling author Ryan Green assumes the role of Angus Sinclair and attempts to fill in the blanks on one of Scotland's most notorious serial killers. Sinclair is a shocking true story about lust, manipulation, dominance and extreme violence.

CAUTION: This book contains descriptive accounts of sexual abuse and violence. If you are especially sensitive to this material, it might be advisable not to listen any further.

The story is interesting, but I do feel the dramatized rape was on the tasteless side. Besides that, the narrator was fabulous.

A bit tacky

This is a terrifying story that I didn't know much about until I heard this audiobook. It was very well narrated and described so that I felt the terror as I listened. I listened in one go because i was so hooked. I think the narrator should have had a Scottish accent, rather than American, since the incident took place in Scotland but otherwise I thought this audiobook was excellent and I highly recommend it if you're a true crime fan.

I didn't know too much about this killer only what I'd watched when briefly mentioned on a Netflix show. I've always been interested in the subject matter of true crime. I snapped this audio book up. I found the audio book very interesting and easy to follow. With the the narrator doing a good job of taking us through the footsteps of the killer and his victim's. I would read another of the author's book's for sure.

Another fascinating and terrifying book by Ryan Green! Steve White is the perfect narrator for Ryan's books, this one is no exception.
Sinclair is, to me, particularly unnerving, because of the casual way he harmed children as well as women. He didn't kill any kids (that we know of!!) but not the point! I'm Scottish, and I well remember him, growing up.
Definitely one to add to any TC collection, and, if you've never come across Ryan Green, why not start here!

This book told the tale of the "World's End murders", oddly titled because of the two young women who were picked up in the pub of that name and never seen again. I say oddly because it turned out Sinclair had also killed a number of other young women mainly on the west coast of Scotland, but for some reason the mystery surrounding those in Edinburgh captured the attention of the media more.
This book tells of a much darker and more evil hiding in plain sight character and his evil actions, some of which were helped and abetted by his brother-in-law. he was a truly controlling and manipulative person who lulled young women into trusting him, to their peril.
For once, this book doesn't really look to explain his evil and tie it to childhood trauma too much, just detailing his evil acts.

An exciting and frightening tale of evil
