The lady with the "heart of gold" and the "gentle approach" likes to read about the gruesome details of a person's death?

I agree NanaSue.

I love "Visitation of God" as a cause of death.

However some of the details of a persons death was described in very gruesome terms. Personally I find them absolutely fascinating.
