TRUE CRIME Crimes of Passion.

Hardback. Love is a risky business. There are no guarantees that it won't turn sour or die, nor is there any insurance to protect against cooling passion, broken vows, deceit, or desertion. Most people who have been rejected by a lover or spurned by a spouse weather their heartbreak and anger and humiliation and eventually get on with life. For a few, however, the injured lover's emotion turns itself inside out and takes on lethal proportions. The price extracted for betrayal is death, in some cases from a faithless partner, in others from a usurping rival. The stories featured include : Jean Harris (Scarsdale), Carolyn Warmus, Yvonne Chevallier, Ruth Ellis, Dan/Betty Broderick. B/w photo-illus., Bibliog. + Index. 175pp. 4to. h/back. Pictorial covers, dw not required. As New. A fairly heavy book which may require additional postage if shipped overseas.
