Geary accompanies three brief tales of deliciously bloody (or poisonous) mayhem and murder with an introductory section that sets the Victorian stage and provides some background on the times and the more famous criminals and detectives of the day. From the Inside Flap 3 delectable murders, culled from the pages of Victorian Papers of the era, are presented in Geary's inimitable style, tongue firmly in cheek.

Included in this short 72 page book are 3 cases:The Ryan TragedyThe Dr Pritchard CaseThe Mrs Pearcey MurdersThe Ryan Tragedy featured a brother and sister who were found stabbed to death in their small New York room. No murderer was ever convicted nor any real motive discovered though they did find out in the autopsy that the sister was pregnant and so the gossipy theories began.The Dr Pritchard Case, the longest in this book, features a strange, possibly mad, certainly deluded, doctor who poisoned his wife and her mother. It seems he wanted to get rid of the two in order to marry his 15 year old maid with whom he had been carrying on an affair with. He was convicted and was the last man to be publicly hanged in Scotland.The Mrs Pearcey Murders were the murder of a young mother and her baby. Mrs Pearcey was having an affair with the husband of the murdered woman and the father of the baby, and she had been unable to forget the affair once it was over. She lived in solitude in a house near the family and became consumed with jealousy until one day her loneliness and anger boiled over and she murdered the wife and child.All the stories are interesting and well told, as well as drawn in Geary's signature style. It's great that it's been brought back so that fans can have access to this book once again. Fans of the series will enjoy it although the book is over too quickly and the stories aren't as satisfying as other book length stories like the Lincoln murder or the Jack the Ripper killings. Good read at any rate. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five Stars *by J***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 14 October 2016* excellent value well pleased with this item ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ A PG13 interpretation of the subject *by F***N on Reviewed in the United States on 27 October 2018* Beautiful art.
