The murder mystique

"Combining compelling storytelling with insightful observation, the book invites readers to take a close look at ten high-profile killings committed by American women. The work exposes the forces that underlie the public’s fascination with female killers and determines why these women so often become instant celebrities. Cases are paired by motive--love, money, revenge, self-defense, and psychopathology. Through them, the authors examine the appeal of women who commit murders and show how perceptions of their crimes are shaped."--
