From the Author:
Using criminal psychology in understanding serial murderers.
For readers who possess a passion for understanding the criminal mind, criminal personalities and abnormal psychology, this text is an excellent resource. Indeed, as I conducted interviews with serial killers I realized that this text would delve into the darkest recesses of their minds and personalities. It is a disturbingly horrific study which perhaps raises more questions than it answers. This is the nature of research. I welcome comments from my readers.
