In this fascinating book, Peter Vronsky exposes and investigates the phenomenon of women who kill--and the political, economic, social and sexual implications buried with each victim.

How many of us are even remotely prepared to imagine our mothers, daughters, sisters or grandmothers as fiendish killers? For centuries we have been conditioned to think of serial murderers and psychopathic predators as men--with women registering low on our paranoia radar. Perhaps that's why so many trusting husbands, lovers, family friends, and children have fallen prey to "the female monster."

From history's earliest recorded cases of homicidal females to Irma Grese, the Nazi Beast of Belsen, from Britain's notorious child-slayer Myra Hindley to 'Honeymoon Killer' Martha Beck to the sensational cult of Aileen Wournos--the first female serial killer-as-celebrity--to cult killers, homicidal missionaries, and our pop-culture fascination with the sexy femme fatale, Vronsky not only challenges our ordinary standards of good and evil but also defies our basic accepted perceptions of gender role and identity.

Good product
Color: Soft Brown, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
I do not buy Cover Girl products, but took a chance on this. I am happy I did. This is a nice eyebrow pencil, for a drugstore brand. It does not have the Cover Girl smell. The color was fine for me. It most certainly does not last 24 hours though. I've no idea why the company is allowed to use that in the name.

Tip will not stay saturated with color
Color: Honey Brown, Size: 1 Count (Pack of 1)
This is a pen with a nice felt tip. First time I used it, it glided on nicely. Second time used about it a week later, tip was dry and no matter how I tried, it would not saturate and provided no color. I even tried storing it with the tip facing down to make the color flood to the tip, but even after several days of standing it up that way, tip was still dry. What a waste of money. I just ordered their Easy Brow and Fill Tool, which is a stick of color that winds in and out and so far like it very much. Would recommend that and not this ink pen.
