UNHOLY TRINITY. The Adrian Lim 'Ritual' Child Killings

Paperback. It all began with the discovery of the bodies of two children in early 1981. A trail of bloodstains led to the flat of Adrian Lim, and thus began the most bizarre murder trial ever held in Singapore with revelations of spirit worship, unnatural sex, and murder. The killings provided a larger-than-life graphic warning to those who were too ready to seek supernatural shortcuts to deal with unhappiness. This book provides an extraordinary view of Singapore in the 1980s - modern, dynamic and spanking new on the outside, but, just below the shiny surface, also home to charlatans like Lim, who could profit from the folly of those willing to place their lives and spiritual well-being in his hands. Illus. 229pp. mass market p/back. From the library of true-crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. F. with no creasing to covers. Scarce.
