The Law Killers

by Alexander McGregor


about book :-

Murder is a funny old game. The end result is the same but the
journey to that hellish destination is always different. The route can
sometimes be straightforward enough, uncomplicated and not too
difficult to understand why some people travelled in that direction. At
other times, the trip can be as complex and unfathomable as the
travellers themselves.

Some of the leading players are, in truth, not so different from the
rest of us. They have committed the ultimate crime in a moment of
insanity, a solitary out-of-character act which changes lives forever.
It is instantly regretted but as irreversible and final as the last breath
of the person who perished. It is a route they are unlikely to take
again. Their meandering journey through life has merely sent them
down the wrong path on the wrong day, perhaps when they stopped
off along the way for one drink too many.

The following pages contain some material which is not for the
faint-hearted. Murder is a messy business, however it happens, so
there are passages you are unlikely to read in a romantic novel.
Nothing has been included for gratuitous purposes and in some
instances the content has been diluted to avoid offence – but not so
severely that distortion occurs. To understand the act, it is necessary
to acknowledge the detail. For the same reason, there has been no
real painting on of false moustaches to disguise identities, except
perhaps by omission and only then in the interests of fairness. The
only chapter containing a significant deviation is ‘Babes in the
House’, where the names of all those involved have been changed.
They were made public at the time but, in the current spirit of
protecting juvenile offenders, it seemed preferable to omit them from
this account. Otherwise, the circumstances are just as they occurred.
Few attempts were made to form judgements about the main players
or to analyse the reasons for their extreme conduct, but in any
volume of this kind it would be impossible to avoid the occasional
passing comment of some sort. None of that should prevent readers
from arriving at their own conclusions or from trying to have a better
understanding of what takes place in the dark corners of the places
where we live. Or – and perhaps a more difficult point – to endeavour
to make sense of the some of the unfathomable people who dwell
within in our midst.

The true stories that lie ahead happen to be about a specific city.
They could have occurred anywhere.
