TRUE CRIME TALES

In Narcas: The Secret Rise of Women in Latin America’s Cartels, DEBORAH BONELLO shows them to be just as capable, ruthless, and violent as their male counterparts. MICHAEL FINKEL’s The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime, and Dangerous Obsession tells the story of Stéphane Breitwieser, who carried out more than 200 heists in museums and cathedrals all over Europe. And in The Angel Makers: Arsenic, a Midwife, and Modern History’s Most Astonishing Murder Ring, PATTI MCCRACKEN captures the harrowing 1920s story of a midwife in Hungary who led a murderous cabal of women responsible for the deaths of at least 160 men. Moderating is BRIDGETTE MATTER, WPLG Local 10 News crime reporter.
