Wensley Clarkson Hell Hath No Fury Like a Woman Scorned Published September 2003 by Blake Pub at £16.99 ISBN: 185782556X

These are stories of women who challenge our idea of what we often mistakenly think of as the weaker sex. Their characters and backgrounds are as diverse as they are deadly and their crimes are every bit as gruesome as those carried out by their male counterparts. But what drives a woman to kill? Is there a common theme? Is it desperation, as in the case of the beautiful Diana Perry who suffered years of abuse at the hands of her husband before taking matters into her own hands? Or could it be pure evil, as in the case of Bobby, a lesbian whose interest in blood led her to lead a sect of like-minded women into one of the most horrific seduction killings ever seen? The astonishing truth lies in these pages.

Wensley Clarkson is a bestselling author and journalist whose books sell hundreds of thousands of copies across the world. His latest true crime successes include the critically acclaimed biography of Kenneth Noye, and Gangsters, an inside look at the state of true crime in Britain today.

Ivor John Edwards Jack the Ripper's Black Magic Rituals Pbk published August 2003 by Blake Pub at £6.99 ISBN: 190403487X



For more than a century, the horrific mystery of Jack the Ripper has endured. The crimes of one of the world's most notorious serial killers have gone down in history as some of the most appalling acts one man could ever inflict upon other human beings; and since they were committed, sleuths have made many attempts to identify the man behind the myth. However, nobody has yet revealed the true identity of the murderer to the satisfaction of "ripperologists" everywhere. This book aims to reveal the identity of Jack the Ripper. It takes the reader, step-by-step, through the events at the core of the Ripper's "reign of terror", and uncovers a twisted melange of murder and black magic. The author argues that the man behind these crimes was Dr Robert Donston Stephenson, an army surgeon, occultist and magician with an astonishingly high IQ. He suggests that Stephenson may even have viciously murdered and dismembered his own wife before the killing spree in Whitechapel started.

Since the publication of The Diary of Jack the Ripper, which sparked off a flurry of interest, many other would-be historians have attempted to make their mark. However no case has been so convincingly expounded as Harrison’s and it remains a core text on the subject.
