The Wolf Woman: The Short, Violent Life of Kitty Malm, Chicago's "Bandit Queen"

A prequel to the acclaimed "The Girls of Murder City: Fame, Lust, and the Beautiful Killers Who Inspired 'Chicago,'" this concise nonfiction e-book tells the story of Kitty Malm, the original resident of Cook County Jail’s Murderess Row. Late in 1923, Malm participated in the robbery of a sweater factory that left a watchman dead, led to a thrilling manhunt, and kicked off a string of murders by women that would unleash the greatest media frenzy in Chicago history up to that time. Told with novel-like immediacy, "The Wolf Woman" rediscovers a fascinating lost chapter in the Second City’s criminal history that remains relevant to this day.
