"That woman is evil. She is evil!"
Ejaz Ahmad was handsome, charismatic, and a self-made businessman. He arrived in the United States from Pakistan determined to fulfill his mother's dying wish: to come to America, complete his education, and make his mark in the world. Settling in Memphis, Tennessee, Ejaz became owner of several businesses, father to a handsome boy, and a devout Muslim. The only thing missing in his life was a wife, someone special to protect, honor, and love.
Leah Ward was a pretty girl, but a prison parolee with a history of drug charges, petty crime, and a questionable past. She led a flotsam life, drifting from town to city to state. When she was introduced to Ejaz Ahmad, she believed she had found the ultimate answer: a place to live, someone to take care of her, and money to spend. But what began idyllic soon became abusive and then dangerous for Ejaz. His friends and family warned him. And in May of 2003, Ejaz paid the ultimate price when family members found his mutilated body in a shed.
She is Evil is a story of trust, abuse, religion, and murder. Of a kind man who tried to help a troubled woman and became the victim of abuse and, eventually, a heinous murder.

Judith Yates did an excellent job of narrating the before, during and after of the murder which many books do not; they dwell too long on the during and for get the after but this was very well balanced. I also like when a female reader reads a female author's work. That, to me, lends an air of authenticity. Both Judith Yates and Lee Ann Howlett did an excellent.
This is an engaging tale.

It’s a good story. And It took me a while to soak in. It’s vivid, accurate, and crisp. The narrator had done a good job.
Good story!

The book opens with the horrifying discovery of the victim’s decomposing headless body by his son and ex-mother-in-law. From the outset, there’s no question about who did it. The real question is why this happened, and the author does a skillful job in recounting the events that led to the murder and its repercussions.
Having done prison time for a drug conviction, Leah Ward was broke and homeless when she saw an opportunity to take advantage of Ejaz Ahmad. Seizing upon his generosity and naivety, she moved into his home and eventually entered into what amounted to a marriage of convenience with him to continue her fleecing.
Things took an ugly turn not too long after the wedding, with Leah lashing out in fits of jealousy and stealing money out of Ejaz’s bank account. It was all a downward spiral from there, and the author tells the story in a compelling way that kept me intrigued, waiting to hear what crazy thing she would do next.
Learning about the life of the victim, including his early years in Pakistan and the courtship and marriage to his first wife, as well as learning about the troubled background of his killer second wife, helps one understand how this unsuspecting man fell prey to her evil ways.
The story moves at a good pace and the narrator is excellent, striking just the right tone in her reading of the book while recounting the details of this tragic event.
The latter chapters of the book cover the sensational murder trial and its aftermath. The details of the crime itself are gruesome, and hearing them gave me chills.
The author is a domestic violence prevention educator and has rare insight into a case such as this. Focusing on the criminal elements of the case in addition to the psychological and domestic aspects makes for a compellingly told modern murder tale. And while elements of race, religion and class certainly come into play, ultimately this is a story of an evil, psychotic woman who destroyed the lives of the victim and those who loved him.
