Actors, musicians, TV personalities, and other public figures in the spotlight aren't always who they appear to be. You might be surprised by just how many have led nefarious, double lives, and have become infamous criminals!
Power, status, and a rich lifestyle aren't barriers to criminal behavior. Yes, people from all walks of life commit crimes. But the people featured here are not your typical neighbors or subway passengers—they are household names and Hollywood stars. Get the stories behind these public figures, both contemporary and historical, who have traveled down the murky pathway toward criminal activity.
After committing their crimes, the world may have kept on turning, but their legacies as infamous criminals remain strong worldwide. This book offers a fascinating assortment of true crime cases from around the world and from various time frames.
