The Beauty Defense by Laura James
Justice is blind, they say, but perhaps not to beauty. In supposedly dispassionate courts of law, attractive women have long avoided punishment for cold-blooded crimes. The Beauty Defense gathers the true stories of some of the most infamous femmes fatales in criminal history, collected by attorney and true crime historian Laura James.
