Why read it?

1 author picked Evil Twins as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This book contains a series of true (biographical) stories about twins who murder. What I found captivating was the way each story was told in a True Crime format. It outlined the complex dynamics between each set of siblings, their unhealthy attachments to one another, and dominant vs submissive relationships.

Some had descriptions of paranormal experiences following the death of a twin, giving them “permission” to go on living and committing dark deeds. I found the concept of ESP (extra sensory perception) interesting, resulting in me researching this phenomenon and presenting a case at a medical seminar.
