Sweeney Todd (Livewire Chillers)

To ensure accessibility, Hodder and Stoughton have worked with The Basic Skills Agency on "Livewire", a series of reading books with a teenage or adult interest level for those with a reading age below ten. "Livewire Chillers" is a series of thrilling stories full of suspense. They are subtly colour-coded for the appropriate 'reading age'. The story of Sweeney Todd is too horrifying to believe. But this is a real-life tale of murder and mystery. What was the smell in the church? And how did Mrs Lovett make her 'special' pies?
