   Curator note

   After reading this book, I felt like I was teetering on the edge of black and white. The book's subject matter is actually the story of three women committing crimes together, but the focus isn't on narrating the crimes or how they were solved. Instead, it delves into why these three women turned to crime and their lives afterward, offering a very insightful analysis. At the same time, it also revealed the filth and corruption beneath the surface of wealthy families, sending chills down my spine.
