Those who fell foul of the law in Kent faced a horrible fate: some were thrown to their deaths from the top of Dover’s iconic white cliffs, whilst others were hanged, quartered, burnt or buried alive. Yet still the criminal fraternity of Kent went undeterred. This fascinating book contains tales of thwarted rivals and wicked soldiers, desperate mothers, licentious monks and disreputable women. From the highwayman caught when his wig snagged on a branch to the killer who confessed when the police found silver coins hidden in his underwear, here is a survey of crimes ranging from murders most foul to salacious waltzing and having ''an evil demeanour''. With more than fifty illustrations, this chilling catalogue of murderous misdeeds is bound to captivate anyone interested in the criminal history of the area.
