Hardcover. Zustand: Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. First Edition. Hardcover. First Edition. The Secret of Bryn Estyn. The Making of a Modern Witch Hunt. Tiny tear to top back corner of D/J. Early in the morning of 15 March 1992, 40 police officers took up their positions in various streets in and around Wrexham in… North Wales. As dawn broke they swooped down on their suspects and arrested sixteen men and one woman. All but one of these had once worked at Bryn Estyn, a care home for adolescent boys on the outskirts of Wrexham which had closed in 1984. According to reports which began to appear in the quality press in 1991, Bryn Estyn had lain at the centre of a network of evil which had spread from care home to care home in North Wales, in a conspiracy of corruption on a scale undreamed of only a few years previously. This conspiracy supposedly involved the extensive homosexual abuse of adolescent boys by a paedophile ring, whose members terrorised their victims and subjected them to a regime of violence and brutality. By February 200, when Sir Ronald Waterhouse made damning findings of extensive abuse in North Wales, the police trawling operation which had begun there had spread to the entire country. Police forces across Britain collected allegations against 5,000 former care workers and hundreds were arrested. Was Waterhouse right when he found that there had been wholesale abuse in North Wales care homes? Or did his inquiry itself form part of a modern witch-hunt? In this book the author tells the extraordinary story of what really happened in North Wales. It is a story with disturbing implications not only for the modern child protection movement but for the entire way we understand both our history and ourselves. 722 pp.
