Summary:
"Based off Hannah Maguire and
Suruthi
Bala
's popular podcast of the same name, RedHanded explores real-life true crime cases to help answer once and for all if a killer is born or made. After meeting at a house party in London, where they discovered a mutual obsession for all things true crime,
Suruthi
Bala
and Hannah Maguire drunkenly promised to one day start their own murder podcast. Six weeks later they ordered their first microphones and the rest is history. From the hosts of the hit podcast RedHanded (dubbed by Anna Paquin as her “all- time favorite true crime podcast”),
Bala
and Maguire have amassed a cult following of “spooky bitches.” What is it about killers, cults, and cannibals that capture our imaginations even as they terrify and disturb us? Do we find these stories endlessly and equally compelling and frightening, because they hold up a mirror to society’s failings and to the horrors that we humans are capable of? RedHanded rejects the outdated narrative of killers as monsters and that a victim “was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.”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 their trademark humor, research on real-life cases, and unflinching analysis of what makes a criminal,
Bala
and Maguire take you through what drives the most extreme of human behavior to find out once and for all: what makes a killer tick?"--Publisher.
