Adam Wood, crime historian, returns to Coventry's London Road Cemetery, for a tour and talk revealing dark secrets.
Following his talk and tour in September Adam will be revealing more stories about the cemetery's residents.
Coventry author Adam Wood has been interested in historic true crime since being told as a young boy that his great grandfather, born in London’s east end, had seen the body of one of Jack the Ripper’s victims. Now an author, speaker and tour guide Adam was Executive Editor of Ripperologist magazine, the leading publication dedicated to serious study of the Whitechapel murders, for more than 25 years until 2023, when he launched a new historic crime magazine, Crime Through Time.
Adam lectures at conferences and gives theatre talks, and is regularly consulted for documentaries and comment by television – most recently Unsolved Mysteries on Netflix – and on radio and podcast shows. He is passionate about sharing history in an accessible way which makes it both interesting and enjoyable.
