The Minds of Madness - True Crime Stories
In June 2011, UK author Helen Bailey began writing a blog after the death of her husband as a way to deal with her grief and to provide comfort and a voice to the bereaved.
She openly chronicled her journey following her loss - the ins and outs, the highs and lows, and eventually revealed that things were, indeed, getting better for her - she’d met someone: a man she called “The Gorgeous Grey-Haired Widower.”

40-year-old mother Carole Packman had been living in a toxic household - with a husband who physically abused her, and was openly having an affair with another woman he’d invited to live with them.
Carole had the means, motive, and opportunity to vanish completely and start fresh somewhere else. And for nearly ten years, that’s exactly what everybody thought she’d done.
