The Man in Black: Peter Moore and Four Murders in 90 Days
By day he sold cinema tickets. By night he hunted men across North Wales and Merseyside. In the autumn of 1995, cinema owner Peter Moore — the so-called Man in Black — murdered four men in just three months. He later said he did it “for fun.”
Alexander Lawson tells the story of Henry Roberts, Edward Carthy, Keith Randles and Anthony Davies, the investigation that began on Pensarn Beach, the Christmas Eve confession, and the trial that ended with a whole-life sentence.
