Rose West was, on the face of it, a typical mother living with her husband, Fred, and their children in a three-storeyed terraced house in Gloucester. But behind the building’s modest facade, 25 Cromwell Street was the scene of truly terrible crimes, an authentic House of Horror.Inside the family home, the many young female victims lured there and the couple’s own children were subjected to horrific sexual violence and torture. It would take decades before the Wests’ dark secrets were finally discovered, but do we know the full story of their depravity yet?Nine bodies were dug up from beneath their home, but how many victims were buried elsewhere?Fred confessed – as a ‘gift’ to Rose – to having murdered on his own, but did he truly act alone?Or was Rose, in fact, the driving force in their folie à deux, their shared psychosis?True crime writers Farber and Daniel get to the bottom of these questions and more, including how the killer couple’s psychology and relationship changed over time.

Aileen Wuornos was branded a monster – a man-hating sex worker who murdered seven men along Florida highways. Her name became shorthand for evil, her face splashed across tabloids as the embodiment of female rage and brutality. But the real story is far more complex – and far more human.Beneath the mugshot and media frenzy was a woman born into violence, abandoned as a child, exploited as a teen and hardened by years of surviving on the streets. Her crimes shocked the world, but few stopped to ask what created the fury behind the trigger.Inside the Mind of Aileen Wuornos takes you deep inside the fractured psyche of America’s first female serial killer, dismantling the myth and confronting the uncomfortable truth: what happens when a lifelong victim fights back – and no one wants to listen?

Murder has always fascinated us, and when women are the masterminds, the intrigue grows exponentially. Not only are female murderers much rarer than male killers, but their crimes usually also involve a more sophisticated type of plotting. In Blood on her hands, award-winning journalist Tanya Farber investigates the lives, minds and motivations of some of South Africas most notorious female murderers, from the poisonous nurse Daisy de Melker, to the privileged but deeply disturbed Najwa Petersen, to the mysterious Joey Harhoff who died before revealing where the bodies of her victims (including her own niece) were. Farber sets each case against the backdrop of the different eras and regions of 20th and early 21st century South Africa the women operated in. Her writing style is lighter than the subject matter might suggest and Blood on Her Hands will keep you reading until late at night probably with your light on. The women featured also include: Dina Rodrigues, Phoenix Racing Cloud Theron, Marlene Lehnberg, Chane van Heerden and Celiwe Mbokazi.
