True Crime

<b>The compelling story of a woman who survived marriage to one of the UK’s most notorious serial killers.</b>

In 2006, Cathy Wilson turned on the television and screamed with horror when a familiar face appeared on the news. Peter Tobin, her ex-husband and her son’s father, was a serial killer. After a criminal case that gripped the nation, he was found guilty of the murders of three women and is now serving a life sentence.

In <i>Escape from Evil</i>, Cathy reveals the shocking truth about her life with Tobin. They met when she was just sixteen and he seemed caring, until she started to catch glimpses of a very different man hiding behind his normal façade. He became controlling, then violent, until Cathy found herself trapped in a terrifyingly abusive marriage. Eventually, for the sake of her young son, she found the strength to escape and build a better life.

In her chilling memoir, Cathy describes how she helped the police build a case, and finally stood in court as a witness against the man who could so easily have murdered her too.
