Why, just murder him and take all his money, of course. If you want to be fabulously single with tons of cash, just follow the lead of the beautiful and conniving Minnie Wallace Walkup Ketcham, who left a trail of broken hearts, empty wallets, and corpses.\u003cbr\u003eMinnie was just 16 when she stood trial in 1885 for the wrongful death of her first husband, a successful businessman and politician almost 40 years her senior. Despite overwhelming witness testimony that the Creole beauty from New Orleans had purchased the arsenic that killed him, Minnie's own testimony brought the entire courtroom to tears. She was acquitted. Minnie returned to New Orleans with James Walkup's fortune, life insurance, Civil War pension, and all the expensive clothes she had shipped home before he even died.\u003cbr\u003eMinnie still didn't have enough cash for her liking, so she successfully targeted, seduced, and murdered two more wealthy older men while evading justice in the courtroom (and escaping her lawyer's fees, too). \u003ci\u003eHow to Murder Your Three Lovers and Get Away with It\u003c\/i\u003e is an extraordinary and off-the-wall true story of intrigue, scandal, and murder.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Red Lightning Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45543033012375,"sku":"9781684350247","price":1492.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781684350247.webp?v=1767122237","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/how-to-murder-your-wealthy-lovers-and-get-away-with-it-money-mayhem-in-the-gilded-age-9781684350247","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
