Hallie Rubenhold does it again! An incredibly well researched insight into the lives of the women affected by H.H.Crippen's heinous schemes, especially Belle Elmore who's life was cut short. Belle was appallingly victim blamed by a misogynistic press in the early 20th Century. Rubenhold has brought the true Belle to the forefront of HER story and it's beautifully executed. The epilogue left me feeling utterly sick at how she was depicted by the press and lawmen, and how women still suffer the same treatment to this day. I'm glad Belle now has her rightful spotlight.
