The Lost Voice: Remembering Suzanne Capper
What if the neighbours you trusted, the friends you grew up with, and the people you once babysat for were capable of unimaginable cruelty - of torture and murder within your own community? In December 1992, sixteen-year-old Suzanne Capper was brutally tortured and murdered in Moston, Manchester - a case so shocking it made national headlines and left a community traumatised for decades. But behind the sensationalised coverage and courtroom soundbites lay a deeper the real Suzanne was never fully seen, and her voice was lost beneath the noise.
The Lost Voice is the powerful and long-overdue story that restores her humanity.
Told by Samantha Dale, Suzanne’s childhood friend, and Stephen Capper, her youngest brother, this book peels back thirty years of silence, secrets, and media distortion. Through personal memories, witness statements, long-hidden diary entries, and emotional reconnections, a different picture emerges - one the public was never shown.
For the first time, the people who truly knew Suzanne come together to reclaim her narrative - revealing what really happened, why it happened, and the devastating gaps in understanding that have lasted for more than three decades.
Heartbreaking, courageous, and deeply human, The Lost Voice goes beyond the headlines to give Suzanne her dignity, her truth, and her voice back.
This is her story - told with love, honesty, and a determination to ensure she is remembered not for the cruelty she suffered, but for the beautiful, brave girl she was.
