The true story of the daughter of the famous British maniacs Fred and Rosemary West — about life in the «house of horrors», where corruption, violence, and murders took place.
What to do and how to live when your mom and...
dad are serial killers, famous throughout the country? May West has known this since childhood. Her parents raped, killed, and then dismembered young women in their home at 25 Cromwell Street, London. The sadistic tendencies of the West spouses were not limited to strangers; their own children also suffered abuse and violence. Then the most terrible thing happened: the eldest daughter, Heather, went missing. And it turned out that her mom and dad killed her…
Based on her own memories and her mother’s prison letters, May West tells her story of growing up in the «house of horrors». What is it like when your childhood bedroom in the basement is a real graveyard? How to accept the fact that your parents are brutally killing people? That your mom is a monster and your father is sexually abusing you? And why were you, unlike your beloved older sister, lucky enough to escape? The incredible and tragic story of May West is a story of survival and fighting trauma that lasts a lifetime.
