Don't Bother

It appears that this author read some old newspaper articles and decided to "write a book".
If a high school student submitted this he/she would be accused of plagiarism or, at best, a criminal lack of imagination.

Am not a fan of such writing but was really perturbed to read the horrific acts committed by women. When one thinks of a woman the immediate reflection that inundates the mind is that of a mother, who is affectionate, caring and attentive to a child's needs.

Unfortunately, this book made me think twice. Throughout I was asking myself how this could be happening. Why weren't the authorities confronted all such cases.

I could only recommend this book to a serial killer lover. I think any sane human being wont love this book to read.

Sylvia Perrini certainly seems to have a fascination with serial killers. She collects some of the best on her books. Nurses serially killing patients might seem almost kind given the right context, but I keep remembering New Orleans in the flood and the cold decision of that notorious hospital to euthanize the sickest. That deserves Sylvia Perrini's attention.

This book was chilling.

Almost all the stories here, I've already read from her other books. Good stories though. Very interesting and twisted minds these nurses have.

this book was boring. The same thing over and over again.
