17 Deadly Women Through the Ages+
Publisher Description
TRUE CRIME: WOMEN SERIAL KILLERS
Our society can barely account for evil in males, let alone imagine it in females. The female nests, creates, and nurtures doesn’t she or is it that we just want to believe in the intrinsic non-threatening nature of women?
Yet, history is full of instrumentally violent women: women who have fought wars and battles throughout the world, with no less ferociousness than men, women such as Dynamis of Bosphorous, who starved her husband to death and took control of his kingdom, or Artemisia, the queen of Halicarnassus in the 5th century, who conducted a brilliant but brutal military campaign against the Greeks. Mary Tudor, Queen Mary 1 of England, in 1553 became known as “Bloody Mary,” for her extreme cruelty and willingness to execute people.
In this short book meet 17 less known but equally murderous cold blooded women. After reading it you may find your perception of the gentler sex changed irrevocably. Enjoy.

Women Serial Killers of the 20th,19th,18th,(etc) Century
A light re-telling of some dark crimes. Women serial killers is a niche waiting for content, and Stephanie’s short tales are a great addition. The writing is smooth, and the research well done. All the cases retold here were new to me which was a nice change. And it was great not having to wade through sensationalist drama. “Just the facts, ma’am” seems to have been the plan. I Thoroughly enjoyed these short bites and plan to seek out more.
