Blood Relations

On the morning of August 7, 1985, five members of the Bamber family were found murdered, leading to initial suspicions surrounding Sheila Caffell, who was believed to have struggled with mental illness. However, forensic evidence contradicted the suicide narrative, raising questions about the circumstances of her death. A year later, her brother Jeremy Bamber was convicted of the murders and claims innocence while serving a life sentence. Roger Wilkes provides a comprehensive account of this shocking case, drawing on forensic research, personal interviews, and previously undisclosed witness statements.
