Hardback. A chilling collection of true cases where love turned lethal. An inconvenient wife, a suspicious husband, a lover who refuses to leave - the flip-side of love can all too easily turn out to be murderous hatred. In trunks, under floorboards, in remote ravines - even in their own beds - the bodies of those for whom their lovers' passion proved fatal have been found, and often through the stench of decay. One ingenious killer boiled down his wife's remains in a vat at his sausage factory. Another throttled and incinerated a perfect stranger in order to stage his own death and thus escape the charge of bigamy. Then there were the lesbian schoolgirls who bludgeoned to death the mother of one of them with a brick in a stocking, when she tried to keep them apart. In 16 fascinating case histories, the author tells the true stories of those who have literally loved someone to death. Featuring amongst others : Mahon, Fahmy, Camb, Mancini, Rouse, Hulme/Parker, Rattenbury/Stoner etc. Illus. 218pp. 8vo. h/back. F. in F. dw.
