ABOUT THE BOOK

Their Books Were  Balanced - with Blood!

In these ten true cases of murder, some highly respected and successful businessmen proved themselves ingenious and enterprising-but hardly omniscient-when it came to committing the ultimate crime. They were motivated by jealousy, greed, and the need to conceal other crimes.

They tried to "finalize" their problems with guns, bludgeons, and meat cleavers.

A Wall Street broker, an advertising director, a realtor, and a contractor, among others, distorted the very acumen that had advanced their careers when worship of women or passion for profit led them to transactions in murder. Carefully culled from police files and court records, these factual accounts present a chilling picture of bloody business deals in which nobody came out on top.

Other books by Charles Boswell and Lewis Thompson in the Collier Books Series of True Crime for Connoisseurs include: Practitioners of Murder; Advocates of Murder; Curriculum of Murder; and Harvesters of Murder.
