For years, Tom Cox might have seemed like a regular, hard-living sort of bloke -- a lover of late nights, rock music & beer -- but he had a dark, furry secret. Tom was a cat lover. For a while, he kept his passion in check, but there was only so long he could postpone his true dream. He left London & his job as a rock critic behind, & he & his wife Dee, her cat Janet & three new kittens, moved to a remote part of Norfolk. They thought it would be easy. They thought their cat madness had reached its limit. They were wrong. In Under the Paw, Tom records the chaos of owning seven of the most charismatic, idiotic & duplicitous cats in the country. Suddenly on call around the clock for multiple sets of whiskers, Tom encounters death, depression, flying fur & the first human sentence spoken by a feline. Running through all the maelstrom is the heartbreaking story of his relationship with The Bear, his oldest cat: a 'painfully sensitive' survivor moggy who may or may not be an evil genius. ...

Christopher Berry-Dee, criminologist & bestselling author of books about the serial killers Aileen Wuornos & Joanne Dennehy, turns his uncompromising gaze upon women who not only kill, but kill repeatedly.

Because female murderers, & especially serial murderers, are so rare compared with their male counterparts, this new study will surprise as well as shock, particularly in the cases of women like Beverley Allitt, who kill children, & Janie Lou Gibbs, who killed her three sons & a grandson, as well as her husb&.

Here too are women who kill under the influence of their male partners, such as Myra Hindley & Rosemary West, & whose lack of remorse for their actions is nothing short of chilling.

But the author also turns his forensic gaze on female killers who were themselves victims, like Aileen Wuornos, whose killing spree, for which she was executed, can be traced directly to her treatment at the hands of men.
