Booklet. Kate Bender murdered at least 11 people - maybe 50 - maybe more. Kate was tall, slender and good looking - a magnet for the men who couldn't keep away from her, which made it convenient for Kate to entice her victims. Her motives were pure greed. This was in Kansas, a wild and lawless region of the USA in the 1870s. Kate's family built a house on the main road where travellers could stop for a meal. What they found was a sexually stimulating hostess - and death. 24pp. booklet, browned pp. but still Vg+. From the library of true crime writer, Wilfred Gregg, with his personal b/plate. Scarce.
