- Serial killers: A pretty farm girl feeds her victims to the hogs
- Stalkers: You’re the one that I want … to kill.
- Domestic homicides: A cross-dressing doctor murders his wife to keep his millions.
No one knows how many serial killers are roaming the United States. Some experts believe they murder as many as 180 people each year. Others say the count may be much higher because some serial killers hide the bodies and they’re never found.
Stalkers far outnumber serial killers. Each year they threaten and intimidate 3.4 million people in America. Although stalkers may profess love for the objects of their obsession, many seriously injure or kill their “love object.”
Domestic homicide is rampant in the US. Women and children rarely kill family members. Men commit the majority of domestic homicides. Some are crimes of passion. Others are carefully calculated. Why bother with a divorce when you can kill your spouse?
“In Dark Deeds, Susan Fleet immerses us in the world of serial killers, stalkers, and domestic homicides.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Music & Mayhem is my game. Started my trumpet career in my teens, got into the mayhem later. My print journalist father taught me how to play pool in the police station. Maybe that’s how I discovered my dark side.
After gigging on trumpet in the Boston area for many years (while teaching at Brown University and Berklee College of Music), I moved to New Orleans, which became the setting for my crime thrillers.
I survived Katrina, but moved back to Boston in 2010. On my website I post profiles of women musicians and just began a blog, DARK DEEDS, about serial killers, stalkers and domestic homicides. Please come visit!!

If you were following me on my old blog, but have not subscribed here, on my new blog, you will need to follow by email again. I lost all my follower information when I moved. Thanks and I look forward to seeing you.
Creepy–and yet I want to know what happens in all twelve stories–like driving past a car accident and you can’t look away.
It’s hard to believe human beings have the ability to behave in these ways, and I think that’s where the fascination lies.
I know what you mean. I am fascinated by the depths of some people’s depravities.
Oh my, my curiosity has been pinched. I downloaded it to find out! Thanks Sherry. Lots of love, Emily
Awesome, Emily. I hope you enjoy. I have downloaded it too and hope to read it very soon. I have read all her other books, but still have to finish the review of Diva.
You know I had to get another book by Susan. I am morbidly fascinated like most people. I think reading about it makes us appreciate being alive and well.
Yeah, I know what you’re saying. I can’t get enough of murder and mayhem. lol
