  An incredible addition to the Blake True Crime Library, A Crime of Passion is the shocking true story of Katherine Knight and her crimes - the ritual slaying of her partner for a cannibal feast. Knight, a 44-year-old abattoir worker, stabbed father-of-three John Price 37 times, skinned his body, cooked his head, and served him up as a meal for his children in a heinous act that rocked her town and chilled the world to the bone. Drawing on numerous first hand accounts, and a detailed assessment of Kathy's personal life, this is an incredibly disturbing profile of normality twisted out of all recognition into the dark world of the remorseless psychopath. A Crime of Passion offers a fascinating insight into the true motivation behind such a grotesque act and is a horrifying story of love, lust, revenge and murder - all the more shocking for every word is true.
