Explore the fascinating psychology behind these killer women, unraveling their motives and unveiling the infinite complexities of human behavior in Women Who Murder: An International Collection of Deadly True Crime Tales.
From chilling stories of black widow murderers to spine-tingling narratives of women who shocked the world with their sinister deeds, this anthology spans eras and continents, offering an electrifying and thought-provoking exploration of the darkest corners of human nature and the female psyche. Like Mitzi Szereto’s popular The Best New True Crime Stories series, Women Who Murder includes all-new and original nonfiction accounts from an international cast of writers, all of whom prove that women can be just as deadly as men—if not more so!
“The usual suspects rub shoulders with little-known killers from around the globe in this surprising, disturbing, and thoroughly engaging collection of stories of lethal women, evil mothers, deadly lovers, and abuse victims driven to the brink. Essential reading for all true crime fans.”—Dean Jobb, author of The Case of the Murderous Dr. Cream
“This exciting true crime anthology, finely edited by Mitzi Szereto, demonstrates that although women around the globe kill far less frequently than men, their murderous tales are often more compelling. Highly recommended!”—Dr. Scott Bonn, author of Why We Love Serial Killers: The Curious Appeal of the World’s Most Savage Murderers
“For those who like their true crime lean, mean, and multinational. Women Who Murder delivers bite-sized case studies both notorious and little known, but always addressing one overriding question: what drives a woman to kill? Editor Mitzi Szereto opens a Pandora’s box-load of shockers, contributing her own essay about Iran’s first female serial murderer. Women Who Murder argues convincingly that homicide is not just a macho pastime. Expect many sequels.”—Dennis McDougal, author of Mother’s Day and Angel of Darkness
“Mitzi Szereto’s expertise at assembling collections of true crime essays is on display in Women Who Murder, whose eclectic contents include stand-out essays by the likes of Cathy Pickens (a ‘Southern Gothic’ mystery) and Ciaran Conliffe, who explores the legendary Ruth Snyder case.”—Martin Edwards, Edgar-winning author of The Life of Crime
