There is a book called "Female Serial Killers" by Peter Vronsky you might want to check out. |

Fiction or non-fiction? |

"Female Serial Killers" is a non-fiction book. Sorry, should have specified. |

Not the book you recommended, Elizabeth. I'm wondering if Dolores is looking for fiction or non or does it matter. Last Edited on: 3/21/17 11:22 PM ET - Total times edited: 1 |

Here's the blurb from The Devil's Rooming House - The True Story of America's Deadlest Female Serial Killer by M. William Phelps: A silent, simmering killer terrorized New England in 1911. As a terrible heat wave killed more than 2,000 people, another silent killer began her own murderous spree. Sister Amy Archer-Gilligan, who'd opened the Archer Home for Elderly People and Chronic Invalids four years earlier, would be accused of murdering both of her husbands and up to sixty-six of her patients with cocktails of lemonade and arsenic; her story inspired the Broadway hit Arsenic and Old Lace. I found this book interesting because the home she established for the elderly actually became the blueprint for the idea of nursing homes as we know them today.
