But in the early 1980s, Gordon Burn spent three years living in Sutcliffe's home town of Bingley, researching his life. Somebody's Husband, Somebody's Son offers one of the most penetrating and provocative insights into the mind of a murderer ever written.Includes a new introduction by Denise Mina.
