A mother’s fight to bring her daughter’s killer, Christopher Halliwell, to justice

‘I have lived every parent’s worst nightmare. On what would have been my daughter’s 29th birthday, Detective Superintendent Stephen Fulcher knocked on the door and told me my beautiful Becky was dead. Found buried in a shallow grave in a remote field, Becky had been brutally murdered.’

When Becky Godden-Edwards was killed, her mother Karen awoke to a world where the truth was never guaranteed; where taxi driver Christopher Halliwell got away with murder and the police officer who found her daughter was punished instead.

This is Karen’s story. Despite unimaginable tragedy, her love for her daughter has been unbreakable: from her despair through Becky’s troubled teenage years, to the agonising eight years when Becky was missing, and then the dramatic story of how a killer’s confession led to a terrible discovery.

The one constant has been Karen’s determination to fight for Becky, tirelessly campaigning for the truth about what happened to be heard and for Halliwell to face the consequences of his evil actions.

*The murders of Becky Godden-Edwards and Sian O’Callaghan will soon be the focus of major new ITV series A Confession starring Martin Freeman as Stephen Fulcher and Imelda Staunton as Karen Edwards*

This is a book you won’t be able to put down! I could not put this book down! I was with Karen all the way, I felt her emotions with each page turned, I smiled, I felt a mother’s anxiety, I gasped, I cried, I felt the shock, the grief, the disappointments, frustration and the anger, but I also felt the intensity of a mother’s love throughout Becky’s life and death, the strength, determination, commitment and courage. This book has been written with so much integrity and honesty allowing the reader incredible insight into what can only be…

Unputdownable This is an amazing book written by an extraordinary woman. I couldn’t put it down. The determination of Karen to get justice for Becky is incredible, I take my hat off to her. Even when Becky was alive and using drugs what she did to try and help Becky was much more than many parents would have done. Becky is a well rounded character in this book who was obviously deeply loved and missed by many people. I think if she had an ounce of the grit and intelligence her mother has she is a loss to the…
