This collection of true-crime stories features 13 notorious poisoners, including Tillie Gburek, whose special stews contained some strange seasonings, and whose mysterious talent for prophesying her husbands' deaths owed nothing to chance and everything to her deadly recipes. Among the others are Graham Young, who dispensed lethal concoctions just to see what would happen, and Arthur Ford, who administered Spanish fly to two girls, with decidely un-aphrodisiac results. Adrian Vincent's other books include "The Face of Evil" and "Fatal Passions".
