Forcible Confinement
In 1984 abusive father Joseph Fritzl drugged his 18-year-old daughter with ether and imprisoned her in a dungeon under his house - she wasn't to see daylight for 24 years. Down-and-out millionaire Gary Heidnik wallpapered his hallway with $5 bills, anointed himself bishop of his own religion and began collecting 'wives', women he abducted from the street and kept chained up in a pit. Bondage freak Izabela Lewicka willingly signed a 115-item contract giving John Edward Robinson complete control over her life, but she never imagined it was a license to kill. Forcible Confinement is a study of the warped thinking that went into some of the world's most macabre crimes, as well as a clinical exam...
Evil Wives
Many people find it difficult to believe that women are capable of extreme acts of violence, so female killers have often been able to evade the long arm of the law for extended periods of time. Indeed, the concept of the evil wife seems much more shocking than that of the evil husband, perhaps because women are so closely associated with nurture and support in western society. In the case of most women, society's trust is not misplaced, but one must be ready to accept there are always exceptions, such as the women you'll encounter within these pages, who all proved themselves far deadlier than the male... Evil Wives focuses on the most horrible crimes ever committed by women. Author John Marlowe presents a carefully chosen cross-section of history's deadliest female criminals, whose fascinating life stories are viewed with an unflinching gaze, making for a chilling but engrossing read. Features: • Nancy Kissel • Kimberly Hricko • Jane Andrews • Rita Gluzman • Nancy 'Nannie' Doss • Rosemary West
The Misadventures of John Marlowe, P. I.
John Marlowe's card says Information Consultant, but in his heart he's a private investigator. Most of the time his work involves nothing more exciting than taking some dirty photos of cheaters, but every now and then he stumbles onto something a little more interesting. Recently, the interesting cases seem to be piling up. Missing investment bankers, mysterious fiancees, and disgruntled partners in semi-legal businesses challenge Marlowe to find creative solutions while trying to stay out of danger. Things really get interesting when he starts to notice connections between some of his more interesting cases, hinting at a mysterious and sinister group with incredible resources operating in t...
Christopher Marlowe
Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593) emerges in most accounts of his life by biographers and critics as a mysterious and sensational action figure, a hapless pawn of circumstance, or a pseudonymous cipher. Constance Brown Kuriyama's new biography reconstructs the eventful life of a radically innovative playwright who flourished briefly and died violently more than four hundred years ago, yet persists in the romantic imagination even today. Many discoveries about Marlowe's life have emerged over the past hundred years. The author here supplements these findings with new material, placing the dramatist and poet more precisely in his historical milieu. Kuriyama interprets Marlowe's acts of violenc...
Chambers of Horror
'What I want is an off the shelf sex partner. I want to be able to use a woman whenever and however I want. And when I'm tired or bored I simply want to put her away.' - Leonard Lake Jeffrey Dahmer who was obsessed with dead animals when he was younger, later got sexual satisfaction from eating his victims as he felt like they became a part of him. John Wayne Gacy toured the children's wards in hospitals, dressed in a clown costume of his design, but beneath the exterior, laid the killer of 30 boys and men. Rose West met Fred West when she was 15. Even before marrying in 1972, violence, rape, incest, torture voyeurism and paedophilia were already part of a normal day for the couple. Chambers...
Christopher Marlowe
Christopher Marlowe: Poet & Spy is the most thorough and detailed life of Marlowe since John Bakeless's in 1942. It has new material on Marlowe in relation to Canterbury, also on his home life, schooling, and six and a half years at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and includes fresh data on his reading, teachers, and early achievements, including a new letter with a new date for the famous 'putative portrait' of Marlowe at Cambridge. The biography uses for the first time the Latin writings of his friend Thomas Watson to illuminate Marlowe's life in London and his career as a spy (that is, as a courier and agent for the Elizabethan Privy Council). There are new accounts of him on the conti...
