They were once sweet little girls—sugar and spice, and everything nice. Now they're cold blooded criminals, behind the bars of America's most dangerous prisons—hardened women doing their time. how and why did they cross to the dark side? What makes women kill husbands, lovers, family, and innocent strangers? Step aside and meet:
Patty: the prison beauty slaughtered her mother, father, and little brother after falling in love with an evil Svengali twenty years her senior.
Michelle: She lovingly tends the flowers on the prison grounds. Only those who know her best know how she kicked her husband to death.
Cynthia: A typical St. Louis girl—until she met a jailbird and embarked on a murderous rampage worthy of Natural Born Killers.
Author Wensley Clarkson has used his unique, unlimited access to some of America's toughest prisons to reveal the shocking world of female criminals—from their illicit love affairs to race relations, prostitution, protection rackets, drug smuggling, and more.
Plus: what happened to notorious criminals Amy Fisher and Pam Smart? Now their tawdry lived behind bars are revealed.
