Publisher's summary

From R. Barri Flowers, award winning criminologist and international bestselling author of The Sex Slave Murders and The Sex Slave Murders 2, comes a gripping new true crime short, "Killers of the Lonely Hearts: The Tale of Serial Killers Raymond Fernandez & Martha Beck."

In this gripping tale of sex, jealousy, con artists, and murder, the author gets to the root of the violent crimes perpetrated by 1940s serial killers Fernandez and Beck, who preyed on lonely women through personal ads, stealing from them, and murdering them before the ultimate justice was served on the killer lovers.

As a bonus, included is a complete true crime short, "The Sinful Killers," about serial killers James Gregory Marlow and Cynthia Coffman, who murdered at least five people over three states in 1986, including four women, who were targeted for abduction, sexual assault, and robbery.

An added bonus is excerpts from R. Barri Flowers best-selling true crime shorts, "Mass Murder in the Sky", in which an airliner is brought down over Denver by dynamite and "Murder at the Pencil Factory", chronicling the century old murder of Mary Phagan and the lynching of her purported killer Leo Frank.

Also included are excerpts from the author's bestselling novel, Dark Streets of Whitechapel, a Jack the Ripper historical thriller.

What made the experience of listening to Killers of the Lonely Hearts the most enjoyable?

This book was a good overview of the crimes of Raymond Fernandez and Martha Beck. It is a short book, and not in-depth, but it is good and gives the facts. At the end, there is a bonus of short previews of R. Barri Flowers other book, including a fiction novel based on Jack the Ripper. The short preview was quite intriguing. I did enjoy this book as well.
