He travelled under stolen names, with stolen credit cards, and a
suitcase full of secrets. John Martin Scripps was no ordinary
tourist. Behind his polite British accent and passport stamps was
a cold-blooded killer—one who stalked fellow travellers, lured
them into trust, and then turned their holidays into horror
stories.

In this chilling episode of Crime at Bedtime, we unravel the
twisted life and international killing spree of Scripps, the
first Briton to be executed in Singapore in decades. From drug
trafficking to gruesome dismemberments across Asia, this is the
story of a man who weaponised charm and chance encounters,
leaving a trail of bodies and stolen identities in his wake.

What drives a man to kill strangers in paradise? And how did
authorities from multiple countries piece together a global
jigsaw of murder?
