Talk about ironic... Apparently, this woman was really fixated on murder. I'm surprised her husband would have wanted to marry her. I guess he thought she'd never go through with it.

@JustPlainLucas: Indeed. One would think he would've read the writing on the cover. Pah dum pum...

No it would be ironic if she tried and failed.

Well if that wasn't a red flag, then I don't know what is.

Sardonic?

My wife loves that book...

Amusing, but I was sort of expecting the article to talk about some evidence that she's the killer. I'm not saying that she isn't guilty, and I totally understand why details would be withheld when there's an active investigation still going on. I just want to point out that in the absence of any actual evidence, the book doesn't really point to any indication of actual guilt.

@SOedipus: Oh dear... ?

Apt might be the word.

You couldn't make it up.

Basic Instinct?

She needed to write on how to get away with it.

Yeah, so far she's just being charged. Makes me wonder what if any actual evidence they have of her to make the charge stick.
