POISONED VOWS

Paperback. Jill Coit was a volptuous, dark-haired beauty from the Louisiana bayou, but beneath the glamour of the one-time fashion model was a woman of insatiable desire who used her cover-girl looks to prey on eligible, well-meaning men. Married 10 times, she vowed her undying love. But her life was a series of betrayals involving flagrant adultery, and even bigamy. She battled to get her hands on her ex-husbands' bank accounts, family inheritances and valuables. Across at least 5 states, she used more than a dozen names to spin a tangled web of marriages and money. But was she on a heartless quest for more and more wealth - one that led to the cold-blooded murder of two of her husbands and attempts on the life of another? And did she go so far as to try to involve her own son in a plot to murder husband number nine? Illus. 298pp. mass market p/back. From the library of true-crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Nr. F. with no creasing to covers.
