You can't possibly say that you've ever been looking forward to reading a book about a case like this, but I have had this book here since it was first published, and I've picked it up and read a little now and then since then. Frankly, the subject matter made me queasy.
But in the same way that the author wanted to know what on earth made Knight go so far over the top, ultimately, I was wondering the same thing. So I eventually stopped sooking and sat down and read this book.
It's no wonder show more that Katherine Knight is never to be released, and whilst the circumstances of her life are delved into in this book, you still wonder why or how it is that a woman could go so far over the top. So very very far over the top. I think BLOOD STAIN does give you an inkling into what can turn a woman into a killer. I'm not sure anyone could explain what would turn a woman into the sort of killer Kath Knight became. Interesting book about a very stomach turning case. show less

A good quality biography to compliment the 1995 biography by Barassi and McFarlane.
