Cambridge University is esteemed as one of the great learning centres of the world, and has been for many centuries.

Whatever its gravitas as a seat of learning it should come as no surprise that Cambridge has a malevolent and dark side. Within the ranks of its Academics and Alumni lurk the strange minds who have created despicable stories with heinous characters.

M R James, E F Benson, Christopher Blayre and E G Swain are but a few of these transgressors who have lurked within its glittering yet tortured walls.
