When Women Kill: Questions of Agency and Subjectivity

By Belinda Morrissey

Based on case studies from the US, UK and Australia, this book looks at the ways in which female killers are constructed in the media, in law and in feminist discourse almost invariably as victims rather than actors in the crimes they commit.
