Law. Psychology. True Crime. Nonfiction. HTML:Obsession, Unrequited Love, Jealousy, Revenge, and Violence Collide in this Page-Turning Anthology

#1 New Release in Forensic Science Law and Hoaxes & Deceptions

Crimes of passion are both eerie and strangely tantalizing. How can someone you hold dear become someone you fear? This riveting anthology explores the question through some of the most compelling true crime accounts and stories of obsession and vengeance.

Crimes fueled by emotions. Love, passion, obsession, jealousy, and betrayal. When it comes to the emotions, people can react in strange and unexpected ways. Whether it's a heart hurt by unrequited love, or a lover so passionate they'll stop at nothing to get their wayâ??even the most mild-mannered soul can suddenly flip, becoming a vengeful spirit with dark intentions. From the ancient Greek myth of Jason and Medea to Shakespeare's Othello, themes dealing with deeply felt emotions have persisted. But unlike mythology or fiction, The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Passion, Obsession & Revenge contains stories from real life.

A special selection of stories written exclusively for this book. The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Passion, Obsession & Revenge includes stories from around the world and from different times. As with all titles in the popular The Best New True Crime Stories series, this volume contains original nonfiction accounts penned by writers from across the literary spectrum. Dive into these twisted true tales of passion and unrequited love turned violent. Examine why some have fully embraced their dark side, resorting to crime to achieve their own special brand of satisfaction and retribution.

If you enjoyed Mitzi's last book in her series, The Best New True Crime Stories: Well-Mannered Crooks, Rogues & Criminals, and books like You Love Me, and The Big Book of Serial Killers Volume 2, then you'll love The Best New True Crime Stories: Crimes of Passion, Obsession & Revenge.… (más)

I received a copy in exchange for a review.
The stories in this true crime anthology are incredibly diverse. A sensitive gay man robs a Brink's truck in A Young Man in Trouble. In Revenge of the Nagpur Women, a monstrous criminal in a slum of India finally receives a worthy punishment. Because I Loved Him follows the life and horrific crime of a Japanese woman. Each story also gave information on the aftermath of the crime, delved into the motivations of the criminals, and the lives of victims and survivors. I enjoyed The Life and Demise of England's Universal Provider, covering the case of the 1907 murder of a businessman with plenty of enemies, but an unexpected killer. With stories set from the 1800s to modern day, and settings sprinkled across the globe, there was nothing repetitive in the anthology. ( )
