1. Rosemary West?

Is this the female half of the deadly duo? Are there any books about them that you would recommend?

2. I recommend

'An evil love' by Geoffrey Wansell. It was an authorised biography and he had a lot of access to documents and family photos that other authors didn't. IIRC most of the proceeds went to the chldren which was why such extensive access was given.
