About this listen

In a time when beauty was often seen as a reflection of inner virtue, and evil was expected to mirror ugliness, Jean Briggerland breaks the mold. She is as stunningly beautiful as she is chillingly sociopathic. Her angelic beauty blinds those around her to her guilt, despite her crimes being glaringly apparent. Only Jack Glover, the steadfast friend and lawyer of her last victim, sees her true nature. Can he halt her murderous rampage and bring her to justice before she kills her way to wealth and happiness? Dont bet on it. While the plot may seem wildly implausible, it still manages to hold your suspense from the first to the last page. Please note, the books antiquated attitudes and sporadic profanity may add a humorous twist for some but could potentially offend others.
