Patricia Pearson, author of the ace, sharp When She Was Bad, is no right-wing
sexist pig. She does, however, argue passionately that the female of the species
is as deadly as the male and now needs to admit her aggressive tendencies. Some
chapter titles are pure Hollywood: 鈥淢aybe you mistook me for an angel鈥� is good;
鈥淲oman as predator, methods of the multiple murderess鈥� even better. Published by
Virago, 拢9.99, ISBN 1860494889.
