From the author of the national bestseller The Dark Queens, a work of true crime and feminist history about Elizabeth Bathory, the woman alleged to be the world's most prolific female serial killer.
Puhak is a skillful guide through the thicket of political turmoil, weaponized accusations and palace intrigues ... Sordid, grisly and above all memorable.
Deeply researched, revelatory ... Puhak’s level-headed analysis of the evidence, grounded in historical context, exposes the tragic ease with which a powerful woman may be attacked through innuendo and misinformation.
