The Wicked Boy: The Mystery of a Victorian Child Murderer
by Kate Summerscale
Oh, this was a fascinating read. Summerscale provides a wonderful lens into the world of Victorian London, its court system, and its treatment of a teenage boy deemed insane. The story seems straightforward, but took surprising twists and turns that kept me unable to put the book down - and the end left me perfectly satisfied.
