Many people express shock and horror when they hear of a wealthy or famous person killing another person. As a society, we seem to expect the rich and famous to behave better, to commit fewer crimes, to be immune to the passions that inspire other, less prominent people to kill. After all, the rich and famous have everything—why would they need to murder? But the rich and famous kill for the very same reasons others do: love, power, money, jealousy, greed, revenge, and rage. Here, Scott takes us on a tour of murders committed by the rich and famous during the last century, looking at the motives, the responses of the community and local law enforcement, the media, and the outcomes. She argues that the rich and famous may kill for the same reasons as others, but they receive vastly different treatment and are often able to get away with murder. Homicide by the rich and famous is not new in this country, nor is fascination with the crimes committed by our most revered citizens. But being among the upper echelon of society does afford such suspects with a greater ability to escape punishment. They have greater access to better respresentation, they have the means to flee the country, they have influential friends in high places willing to put themselves on the line, and they are generally treated better by law enforcement and the criminal justice system. This book profiles the many ways in which homicides committed by the rich and famous are similar to other murders in their motives, but differ from those committed by everyday citizens in their outcomes. Scott provides readers with a showcase of crimes that will infuriate and fascinate readers.

The search for a plastic surgeon draws Hollywood legend and amateur sleuth Charlotte Graham to upstate New York, where she discovers a utopian community’s darkest secrets Zion Hill is paradise in the Hudson River Valley. A religious utopia founded a century ago, it remains a peaceful oasis where residents worship, marry, live, and die in the name of their church. But when walking along the river, exploring the township’s quaint old cemetery, a local finds something that will shatter Zion Hill’s pious calm. On one of the headstones sits a human skull, staring with empty sockets at the rolling, muddy river. Murder has come to paradise. Hollywood legend Charlotte Graham is in Zion Hill on a reluctant search for a nip and tuck when the skull is discovered. The victim was an aspiring actress and another patient of Charlotte’s cosmetic surgeon, and she was not the only one to die. In this religious paradise, vanity may be the deadliest sin of all. Booklist has called Charlotte Graham “Miss Marple in furs and jewels.” Fans of Agatha Christie’s legendary female sleuth will find that Charlotte is just as clever, and will agree that Murder Among the Angels may be her most elegant adventure yet.

Chapters include: "The Construction of Problems and Panic," which covers areas such as comprehending murder, dangerous outsiders, and the rhetoric of perscution; "The Reality of Serial Murder," which discusses statistics, stereotype examination, and media patterns;"Popular Culture: Images of the Serial Killer"; "The Racial Dimension: Serial Murder as Bias Crime"; and "Darker than We Imagine"; "Cults and Conspiracies."

When the rich kill, they really do it differently from those who aren't wealthy. Among other things, it is rarer for them to kill, but when someone wealthy gets arrested and convicted for murder, there is a great deal of media attention. They are better able to delay any investigation or get away with murder because of their money, though they often kill for many of the same basic reasons as others - jealousy, revenge, power, and for money. But usually much more money is involved, often due to a divorce or when kids kill their parents. The book begins with a discussion about the differences between rich and poor killers and a historical overview of murder by the wealthy. Then, the book features a series of cases illustrating the different ways the rich kill, including chapters on the already famous and rich kids who kill their parents.
