Bonnie and Clyde may be the most infamous—and celebrated—outlaw couple America has ever known. This is the true story of how they got that way.

“Takes readers on a wild spree, masterfully capturing the zeitgeist of Depression-era America, when dead-ends and despair could turn teenagers into killers, and killers into legends.”—Candace Fleming, award-winning author of The Family Romanov

“Mean, tragic, and glamorous.”—Deborah Noyes, author of Ten Days a Madwoman

Bonnie and Clyde.

They’ve been a notorious outlaw couple for almost a hundred years, and they’re still a part of pop culture—known for being star-crossed lovers as much as violent killers. But how did two young Depression-era criminals become larger-than-life legends?

Karen Blumenthal’s breathtaking true story of love, crime, and murder traces Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow’s wild path from dirt-poor Dallas teens to their astonishingly violent end and the complicated legacy that survives them both. This is an impeccably researched, captivating portrait of an infamous couple and the unforgivable choices they made.
