Killer Couples. True Stories of Partners In Crime, Including Fred West & Rose West

Love and lust are among
the most powerful of emotions, but when a joint thirst for violence is
thrown into the mix, it creates the ultimate lethal cocktail. These case
histories raise the questions of what kind of love proves itself by
brutality against innocents, what warped ties of loyalty bind a lover to
a mate who murders, and how the balance of power between a couple can
become so twisted that other people become irrelevant and, worse,
disposable. Seemingly normal people can all too frequently hide a
macabre depravity for terror, torture, and death. If they hadn't met,
these people might have continued through their lives in unremarkable
obscurity. In all their horrific detail, discover how their flaws and
fantasies fused to create a monster that fed on the sadistic
extermination of their victims. The couples in this book could be your
neighbors, even your friends. They are ordinary people with an
extraordinary secret—murder.
