  She calls herself his wife. She kills to prove it.  
  "Jyll and Jack went up the hill… and only Jyll came back."  
  It’s been six years since Jack Steen walked away from Jyll Steen—the woman who believes she is his secret wife, the daughter of a killer, and now a killer herself. But Jyll never forgot.   
  Not the Vegas weekend. Not the rejection. And not the secrets Jack carries in his midnight recordings.  
  In her first letter, Jyll whispers her devotion in rhyme before confessing her latest crime: the abduction and unraveling of a man who reminded her just a little too much of Jack.   
  Every detail is for him—every cut, every lie, every breath.  
  Dear Jack: Love Letters from Your Serial Killer Wife begins here—with a vow written in blood, a souvenir meant just for him, and a chilling reminder that Jyll isn’t done. Not by a long shot.
