Blood on the Page

Meticulous and gripping – a thriller that disturbs for revelations about a singular act of murder, and the national security state which we call home. – Philippe Sands, author of ‘East West Street’
A real-life procedural… which might have important implications for us all. – Kathryn Hughes * Guardian *
Blood on the Page is an In Cold Blood for our time – a brilliant and unflinching anatomy of a murder that is both brutal true crime and heartbreaking human tragedy. – Tony Parsons
A fine and fascinating read, bolstered by exemplary research and nuanced insights. Absorbing. – Tobias Jones * Observer *
An absolute gem of a true-crime story … The author’s investigation, and his storytelling, are peerless. A superb book. * Evening Standard *
Harding’s book Hanns and Rudolf was a marvel of investigative research. Blood on the Page is similarly diligent and thorough in its approach. – Ian Thomson * Financial Times *
One of the most intriguing murder cases in British legal history… There are enough questions raised by Harding’s meticulous research to suggest that reasonable doubt still hangs over the conviction. * Jewish Chronicle *

Reads like a thriller… a rigorous investigation… a revealing piece of social history.
