Description
Throughout British's rich, flavourful history, and the treasures its heritage holds, a bounty of provocative, yet strangely unsolved mysteries are concealed within its shadowy folds. Jack the Ripper, the Thames Torso Murders, Black Shuck, just to name a few. There is a far more obscure, yet just as putative case, or rather, several cases, that haunted the fields and terrorised the towns of several counties across the United Kingdom. A beast, whirling with razor-sharp claws and dagger-like canines, stronger than any man who dared retaliate once it began its assault. Killing sheep, stealing children, leaving only spoors of crimson blood as evidence it was even there. The killer? That's who Stephen Saunders is attempting to unravel, but as he treks through the dense British undergrowth and analyses the grainiest of footage, there was no guaranteeing that whatever, or whoever it is, the beast wouldn't elude him again.
