I'm writing a ghost story and some of the back story hinges on abuse and murder committed by a woman/group of women in Victorian England - around 1860ish.
I've been doing my own research and have already found a number of useful resources, but it would be helpful if people could direct me towards books (available in the UK or on kobo please), articles, blogs etc that could be useful to me.
I'm especially interested in books that discuss the relationship between victorian attitudes to gender and the punishment of female murderers. I am also very interested in information about murder pacts, the psychology of cults, and any victorian women who killed as part of a group or a pairing.
