Inside the Mind of Rose West explores the chilling story of Rose West, who on the surface, appeared to be a typical mother living with her husband, Fred, and their children in a three-storeyed terraced house in Gloucester. Yet, behind the building's modest facade, 25 Cromwell Street became the site of appalling crimes—an authentic House of Horror.

Inside the family home, many young female victims, as well as the couple's own children, were subjected to horrific sexual violence and torture. It took decades for the Wests' dark secrets to be uncovered. But do we truly know the full extent of their depravity yet?

Nine bodies were unearthed from beneath their home, but how many victims might be buried elsewhere?

Fred confessed—as a 'gift' to Rose—to having murdered independently, but did he truly act alone? Or was Rose, in fact, the driving force behind their folie à deux, their shared psychosis?

True crime writers Tanya Farber and Jeremy Daniel delve into these questions and more, including how the killer couple's psychology and relationship evolved over time.
