Customer Reviews

Linda Wolfe is the best female true crime writer I've read

The Professor and The Prostitue and Other Tales of Murder and Madness was GREAT! This is a book of short stories of true crime. You never know exactly who your loved ones, your neighbors or your local doctors really are! I have a few favorite stories from this book including "The Professor and the Prostitute", "From a Nice Family", "The Strange Death of the Twin Gynecologists", "A Tragedy on Eighty-ninth Street", "The Transexual, the Bartender and the Suburban Princess" and "Dented Pride". A must for all true crime lovers if you can find it!
