True Crime Relationships

They were wives first, mothers, breadwinners, Sunday-smile neighbors, long before they became killers in the headlines. This book is the fifth volume in a chilling series about women who crossed the final line, and the nine wives you’ll meet here did it in the one place meant to be safest: home. Some struck in white hot rage, after years of humiliation, bruises, or betrayal. Others planned calmly and carefully, turning marriage into a ledger and a husband into a payout, killing not for freedom, but for cash. A poisoned drink. A staged accident. A hired gun. Each chapter follows one wife, ...

I start all of my true crime books with a quick word of warning. Most news articles and television true crime shows skim over the vile details of truly horrible crimes. In my books, I don’t gloss over the facts, regardless of how disgusting they may be. I try to give my listeners a clear and accurate description on just how demented the killers really were. I do my best not to leave anything out. The stories included in these books are not for the squeamish.

When it comes to divorce, forewarned is forearmed. This book delivers both in a story you won't be able to pause.

From the acclaimed author of JFK and Vietnam comes a book that uncovers the government's role in the Kennedy assassination more clearly than any previous inquiry.

Twelve true crime stories of murder and mayhem. Fifth audiobook of the True Crime Case Histories Series (2020). When researching these stories, I commonly use actual police reports, court documents, and first-hand descriptions. Some of the details can be disconcerting. I do my best to not leave out any of the details in my audiobooks, no matter how depraved they may be. My intent is not to shock, but to show precisely how twisted the mind of a killer can be. The stories in this volume are shocking and disturbing, but they’re also true. These things really do happen in the world.

It begins with vows whispered under candlelight, hands clasped tightly, hearts full of hope.

And sometimes, the end comes not with a divorce, but with a knife, a gun, poison, or the silent slip of a pillow pressed down in the dead of night. This is not a book about monsters in the shadows or strangers lurking in alleyways. This is a book about wives. Women ...
