Poison Mind: The True Story of the Mensa Murderer-And the Policewoman Who Risked Her Life to Bring Him to ... 3 reviews Jeffrey Good, Susan Goreck
William Morrow & Co, 1995
Riveting tale of Evil
+ This book was good, it grabs your attension and holds it.
I could not put this book down; an unbelievable true crime tale that boggles the mind. to imagine a person would kill another person (by poison), because of something as petty as the music being too loud-it is absolutely frightening. It is to the detectives' credit who investigated this case that ...

Very interesting tale

Dead Ends: The Pursuit, Conviction and Execution of Female Serial Killer Aileen Wuornos, the Damsel of Death ... 4 reviews Michael Reynolds
St. Martin's True Crime, 2004
Not Great Literature, But A Page-Turner
+ Aileen Wuornos needed psychiatric help early in life!!!
It seems peculiar that Reynolds' 1992 account of the life and crimes of Aileen Wuornos has not been promoted in conjunction with the Oscar-winning film MONSTER, which was based on Wuornos's life. Perhaps the substantial liberties which the screenplay takes with the facts are the reason. MONSTER is ...
