Book Overview

Women who murder ... Why are they so much more fascinating than their male counterparts?

For evidence, dip into any of the sixteen strange-but-true tales collected in this anthology by Cleveland's leading historical crime writer. You'll meet:

Ill-fated Catherine Manz, the "Bad Cinderella" who poisoned her step-sister in revenge for years of mistreatment, then made her getaway wearing her victim's most fetching outfit, a red dress and an enormous feathered hat ...

Velma West, the big-city girl who scandalized rural Lake County in the 1920s with her "unnatural passions"--and ended her marriage-made-in-hell with a swift hammer's blow to the skull of her dull husband, Eddie ...

Eva Kaber, "Lakewood's Lady Borgia," who, along with her mother and daughter, conspired to dispose of an inconvenient husband with arsenic and knife-wielding hired killers ...

Martha Wise, Medina's not-so-merry widow, who poisoned a dozen relatives--including her husband, mother, and brother--because she enjoyed going to funerals ...

And a cast of other, equally fascinating women who behaved very, very badly. This is wickedly entertaining reading

"Bellamy once again masterfully brings to life decades-old tales that won't let you look away." -- Cleveland Magazine
