About this book

Summary

She was trusted with society’s most vulnerable. What she did instead shocked Victorian England. In the shadowed streets of 19th-century Britain, where poverty and desperation left countless women with impossible choices, one figure lurked behind a façade of compassion. Amelia Dyer, known as the baby farmer, offered relief to desperate mothers — for a price. What followed was one of the most chilling true crime stories in history.
