Skimpy profiles of 10 women born in the 1800s who each murdered, mostly by poison, a string of neighbors, relatives (often including their own children), and/or husbands and lovers, usually to collect life insurance, and got away with it over a longer period of time than one would expect due to the general higher mortality rate of the day.The writing lacks depth or a voice that would draw you into the macabre nature of the stories. If you find the subject matter fascinating, open the "Look Inside" preview on Amazon to the table of contents, then Google the names of the women. You'll find way more information about them all over the internet for free. Even Wikipedia gives more details and is better written.
