by David Adams (Author)
Profiles different types of wife killers, and examines the courtship patterns of abusive men. This work shows that wife murders are not ""crimes of passion,"" but culminations of lifelong predisposing factors of the men who murder, and that many elements of their crimes are foretold by their past behavior in intimate relationships.
