Description
A pioneering FBI profiler takes readers inside the creation of the Bureau’s elite serial crime unit and the development of criminal profiling as a tool for identifying violent offenders. Drawing on interviews with notorious killers and investigations into cases involving figures such as Ted Bundy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Charles Manson, and the Atlanta child murders, the book explores the behavioral patterns, fantasies, and personal histories that can shape serial violence. It also offers a candid look at the psychological demands of inhabiting both the victim’s and perpetrator’s perspectives, as well as the interrogation strategies used to make dangerous criminals talk. Part memoir, part true-crime investigation, this compelling account examines the dark complexities of criminal behavior while revealing the human cost of pursuing justice.
