Books like Sidney Sheldon's Angel of the dark by Tilly Bagshawe
When Andrew Jakes, an elderly multimillionaire art dealer, is found dead in his Hollywood home, his wife is assaulted and valuables stolen, yet no solid evidence surfaces. The case is closed and the widow disappears. A decade later, his son Matt Daley, suspicious of a pattern, discovers that similar murders have occurred worldwide: wealthy newly married men slain, their wives assaulted, and the widows left as sole beneficiaries who then donate the wealth to children’s charities. Investigations point to a woman who changes identities across the globe, dubbed the "Angel of Death." Matt teams with former LA investigator Danny Maguire to reopen the case, but when the supposed widow reappears, the truth becomes increasingly elusive and their time to stop her runs out.
