“Based on a true story, with dark humour throughout, you will be hooked.” -Prima “Bruce uses a framework of fact to create fiction that horrifies… grisly historical thriller.” -Booklist “Mesmerizing…Fans of fictionalized treatments of notorious murderers will be fascinated.” -Publishers Weekly, Starred Review A glorious enterprise meant to raise her from the bleak, colorless drudgery of her childhood to the life she deserves. Belle Gunness learned a long time ago that a woman has to make her own way in this world. The good people of Indiana may have their suspicions, but if those fools knew what she’d given up, what was taken from her, how she’d suffered, surely they’d understand. No one sees them at all after they come to call on the Widow of La Porte. Men come to her with their hopes, their dreams–their fortunes. An audacious novel of feminine rage about one of the most prolific female serial killers in American history–and the men who drove her to it.
