...

After the victory of Bradley Wiggins & Team Sky in the 2012 Tour de France, the pressure was on the team to repeat their success in 2013. When Wiggins had to pull out of the defence of his yellow jersey, attention moved to Chris Froome, who had finished as runner-up the year before. Could he bring about back-to-back victories for the UK & for Team Sky? With team principal Sir Dave Brailsford at the helm, the levels of expectation were high. Nothing less than a win would do. Embedded within the team was top sportswriter David Walsh, who had been covering the sport for four decades.

His inside story, from how Team Sky prepared for the Tour de France through to Froome's emphatic victory, is supported by insights from all the key members of the team, & provides a definitive account of a dramatic race that gripped cycling fans around the world. ...

Enter the mind of John Wayne Gacy, the real-life ' Killer Clown', often said to be the inspiration for Stephen King's evil Pennywise in It. Gacy lured victims to his home with the promise of work or a warm bed & then duped them into putting on handcuffs, claiming he wanted to show them a magic trick. He would then rape & torture his victims before killing them by suffocating or strangling them.
