Unheard: The Fred and Rose West Tapes

Introducing... Power: The Maxwells

Everyone’s heard of Ghislaine Maxwell (Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged partner in crime). But there’s a shadowy figure who hangs above her who you likely don’t know: her father, media tycoon Robert Maxwell. His rise from nothing to fall… from the deck of his super yacht under mysterious circumstances is straight out of a crime novel. His favorite daughter Ghislaine’s theory: her father was murdered. From Somethin’ Else, makers of ‘The Immaculate Deception’ and ‘The Faultline: Bush, Blair &amp; Iraq’, hosted by Investigative journalist Tara Palmeri, ‘Power: The Maxwells’ is a seven part series on the incredible true story of a media mogul whose legacy is still being felt today.

In 1994, Howard Sounes began investigating a case of serial murder in an English cathedral city. A married couple, Fred and Rose West, had killed at least twelve women and girls, including their own daughter. They cut their victims up and buried the remains of nine bodies under their house at 25 Cromwell Street, Gloucester, where the Wests continued to live undetected... for decades.  Uncovering their secrets as a journalist and author, researching his classic crime book Fred &amp; Rose, Howard recorded his enquiries and interviews on cassette tape. Twenty-five years on, Howard revisits these previously unheard tapes. He also speaks to new witnesses, as he reveals the full story of the Wests, with new insights, in this compelling 12-part podcast series from <a href="https://www.somethinelse.com/work/podcasts-radio-stations-smart-speakers/" target="_blank">Somethin’ Else</a>.  Fred &amp; Rose by Howard Sounes is available now on <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/0751577502/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tu00_p1_i0" target="_blank">Amazon.co.uk</a> and <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B06WGXM9RW/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i0" target="_blank">Amazon.com</a> Hosted on Acast.
