Affairs of Poison - True Crime's Deadliest Poisoners

Poison is a fairly popular method of murder in true crime history because it doesn't require brute force or a weapon of any kind. You can simply slip it in a cake or a drink. Anything you want.

It might be more complex to capture a poisoner than a mad axeman but the police tend to catch up with poisoners in the end. In this book we'll take a look at some of the deadliest poisoners in true crime history.

What follows is a grisly gallery of heartless rogues who you definitely wouldn't want making the tea.
