Men come to her with their hopes, their dreams, their fortunes.

But no one sees them leave . . .

Belle learnt a long time ago that men own everything: jobs, property, wives.

But she also understands what few others do: where women are concerned, men are weak.

With murder on her mind, Belle sets out to prove that a woman can be as ruthless and controlling as any man.

So she was in control when she put those ads in the local paper.

And she was in control when she killed the men that replied, too.

Got me out of a reading slump! Dark glee, tragedy . . . fans of my story The Corset will gobble this up
