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. ( )
