Hardback. A unique collection of compulsive true-life stories, selected from world-wide sources. The volume opens with an Australian case in which a Lolita syndrome is projected to its logical tragedy, and immediately following it is the case of a smiling elderly widow who poisoned her husbands, also elderly, with unseemly haste. Although widely diverse in setting and period these narratives share the sinister qualities of violence, sexual passion and mystery.
