The very term 'crimes of passion' evokes deep-seated, primitive responses in us all. We are fascinated, yet repelled by the thought of such overwhelming rage and passion. In this remarkable book, Howard Engels leads us on a journey through these murky passages of the human mind. In clear-sighted, reflective accounts of history's most well-known cases, Engels attempts to understand this most extreme of behaviour and unravels some of the darkest depths of the human psyche.
