A Conversation with “League of Lady Poisoners” Author Lisa Perrin

Poison is a bad way to go. Overtime, poisoning has become known as a "feminine" mode of murder. But do the facts support that contention? And what are some of the stories behind the most famous poisoners in history? Are there lesser-known cases that are just as interesting? What motivates somebody to start dabbling in poisons?

We were fortunate enough to speak about all these topics with author and illustrator Lisa Perrin. She recently published a wonderful book called The League of Lady Poisoners: Illustrated True Stories of Dangerous Women, filled with beautiful — and spooky — illustrations and fascinating stories about toxins, trauma, and torturous murder.
