MARIA BOURONCLE

​

IT CAME TO ME ON A WHIM: The Story of Ingeborg Andersson, Child Murderess, tells the story of Maria Bouroncle's great-aunt who killed her three children at the age of twenty-seven. Through exhaustive research, Maria has strived to shed light on what led up to this tragedy that had been a tightly guarded family secret for over seventy years.  

IT CAME TO ME IN A WHIM is now available in Dutch! 

Maria Bouroncle takes us deep into a story of real-life murder to show us the humanity - even love - behind the crime. A riveting read - haunting, atmospheric, and ultimately, heart-breaking.
