Neuware - HELL HATH NO FURY 313 MORE SPIRITS OF THE SINISTER AND THE SLAIN'A villain is just a victim whose story hasn't been told yet.'Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned. But have they been scorned because they have been overlooked, ignored, and underestimated for so long Perhaps, because we do know that women have rarely been given the respect they deserve, even when it comes to homicide. As the unlucky can assure you, murders committed by women are almost always more terrifying than any man can imagine. Frightened yet You should be. Women kill for money, revenge, love, and, yes, occasionally, just for pleasure. They have left behind slain lovers, dismembered children, and spirits who refuse to rest. They can be insane, vengeful, and malicious, and their ghosts often demand attention long after their deaths. They are also the slain - victims who become enduring specters that beg for their stories to be told.The women within these pages are the lost, disappeared, misguided, spurned, wicked, put-upon, vicious, neglected, misunderstood, sinister, haunted, devious, mistreated, murdered, and spectral - and women you will never forget.

In this third volume of the series, he recruited the talents of Amanda R. Woomer to reveal thirteen more tales of the sinister and the slain. It's another book of depravity that's not for the faint of heart.…
