Summary

Features an audiobook exclusive interview: Suruthi and Hannah interview award-winning author Denise Mina on 'the less dead', equality and bigotry in crime, the justice system and the media.

The highly anticipated book from the UK's number one true-crime podcast, Redhanded!

What is it about killers, cults and cannibals that capture our imaginations even as they terrify and disturb us? How do we carefully consume these cases, and what can they teach us about what makes victims and their murderers our collective responsibility?

Redhanded rejects the outdated narrative of killers as monsters and that a victim 'was just in the wrong place at the wrong time'. Instead, it dissects the stories of killers in a way that challenges perceptions and asks the hard questions about society, gender, poverty, culture and even our politics.

With Bala and Maguire's trademark humour, research on real-life cases and unflinching analysis of what makes a criminal, the authors take you through the societal, behavioural and cultural drivers of the most extreme of human behaviour to find out once and for all: what makes a killer tick?

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

A phoenix risen from the ashes of Excalibur with true crime!


This audiobook can only be described as a phoenix that has risen from the ashes of excalibur.

It details, in full, the mathematics of the human mind, solves all the problems of the ages, gives six recipes for aphrodisiacs and plays the the mouth organ with one foot.

It also gives a very good insight into true crime written by two supreme spooky b*tches who have an excellent podcast and will make your life instantly better, just because of their and it’s existence.

Just brilliant!

I’m a huge fan of redhanded, I’ve also been to the live show in Dublin. This was some great stories plus a deeper dive into the why where and what the actual fuck! Loved it, thanks girls

Very Good!

Great book, very informative, insightful and funny! The only reason I haven't given 5 stars is that a lot of the material has been covered on the podcast. If you have listened to every single podcast episode then there will be some repetition, but if not it is well worth a listen!

Brilliantly interesting

Brilliantly interesting, incredibly researched book delivered in a respectful but humorous manner. So glad Suruthi Bala and Hannah Maguire narrated the book themselves, it adds character to the book keeping it authenticly theirs.
I've binged most of it in one day!

FAN GIRLING!!!

I am a HUMONGOUS fan of these ladies & their wonderful podcast REDHANDED! So I was eager to get their audiobook & binge-the-f**king-life-outta-it!

All I have to say is WOW! Hannah & Suruthi, give yourselves a pat on the back— what a bloody fantastic job you ladies have done!

I am a psychology student [studying in Belfast, N.Ireland]— and I am fascinated by how people minds TICK and why we do what we are maybe [possibly all of us] capable of doing to eachother [and to animals **eek]!

Well researched, your voices are incredible together when storytelling! Love the political banter between the sh*t, because it’s all f**king TRUE! Political sh*I rules us all & what we know [and what we don’t know about!]

Keep it up ladies!
I’m a HUGE fan of ya’s!

Love love love

Well researched, hard hitting with humour

A critical analysis of killers with a healthy dose of realism and political context buy enough humour to make a hard hitting subject bearable
