Many people find it difficult to believe that women are capable of extreme acts of violence, so female killers have often been able to evade the long arm of the law for extended periods of time.
Indeed, the concept of the evil wife seems much more shocking than that of the evil husband, perhaps because women are so closely associated with nurture and support in western society. In the case of most women, society's trust is not misplaced, but one must be ready to accept there are always exceptions, such as the women you'll encounter within these pages, who all proved themselves far deadlier than the male...
Evil Wives focuses on the most horrible crimes ever committed by women. Author John Marlowe presents a carefully chosen cross-section of history's deadliest female criminals, whose fascinating life stories are viewed with an unflinching gaze, making for a chilling but engrossing read.
