Items related to Killer Couples: True Stories of Partners in Crime
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.

Book Description Softcover / Paperback. Condition: Fine. First edition. Paperback. 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. The author explores the deadly dynamic that exists within the relationships of men and women whose romantic obsession leads them to commit acts of bloody devastation. Looking at case histories from around the world - some well known, others whose shocking truth is revealed for the first time - he asks 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. The seemingly normal 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 neighbours, even your friends. They're ordinary people with an extraordinary secret - murder. Contents include : Stephen Marsh and Rebecca Harris; Karla Homolka and Paul Bernardo; Carol Ann Hunter and Anton Lee; Daniel and Manuela Ruda; Ian Huntley and Maxine Carr; Charlene and Gerald Gallego; Sante and Kenny Kimes; Marc Dutroux and Michelle Martin; Amanda Baggus and David Lehane; Sarah Bullock and Darren Stewart; Fred and Rose West.
