Description
Every year, many marriages end in murder. Sometimes these killings follow years of abuse by one party, and at other times they are seemingly out of the blue. Tragic as each case is, it often ends up as just a few paragraphs in the daily newspaper. But this fascinating collection of true crime stories is made up of the most sensational 'marital murders' in our history from the 19th century right up to the present day. These are the ones that hit the headlines and continue to fascinate the public years later. What sort of person turns from loving spouse to killer? AS these chilling stories show, there's no one tpe. It seems that people from every walk of life can cross the line from disaffected spouse to murderer.
